well im leaving here very shortly,havent heard from anyone with regards to comming with me so ill be driving allone...*sniffle*cry*

no idea where you live scotty but you have my number( 027 2705895 ) so give me a bell later on if you get the chance, we will either stay at the Rerewhakaaitu camp or minginui camp,will make that descision when we get nearer the place... see how we go.would be good to leave the gear in a safe place,but the idea of running my $$imex's on the road is painfull.....

hear from you later.

see you all tomorrow morning :D

No problem there, I'd be happy to pay upfront most events involving a stayaway or joint transport are payment up front

As for the trip report Dave and Scotty if you could send me your pics and video for sat and I'll sort it
