Inaugral excursion to Ohinewairua Station Taihape

Post by haynzy »

Well its that time again to organise my annual trip to Taihape so first things first,,,,,,, Dates?

This is a trip that will cater for all vehicles although feedback from previous years has most people that I have spoken to bringing their shineys.
$20 trip fees to cover accomadation in the shearers quarters, mattresses on the floor provided
hot showers
cooking facilities
toilets

Have had good trips in the past and this year will be no exception.

Geez, hitting below the belt. I was thinking of adding my name to the list again as I enjoyed the trip last year - but with comments like that I better stay at home :? :oops: :lol:

I had hoped with the current job situation that I might have been walking away from my current job with a big fat redundancy cheque which would have covered at least a front locker and a few other bits and pieces, but have taken the safe way through and accepted a new role in the organisation so the mods to the "soft" roader will have to wait.
