Probably will as we will be attending the Muster on the Monday, then heading to the Longford Riverside CP with a few others on the 24th.
After that about 8 weeks moving around.

Hi Freewheelers,
No problem with chainsaw or jenny. But, I do put them in a garbage bag, so they are out of sight.

Only if you have fuel cans. Loose gas bottles, or Guns/Ammo.

Remember no Fruit, Vegies, or Fish.

Have sent you Member Message.
Regards Peter.

Thats also what I found.
They made me empty my jerry cans but made no mention of the generator or chainsaw.
They also filled my jerry can with water after it was emptied. Damn!

Hi Rosco

We gave away 20 litres of ULP at the caravan park - darn hard to find anyone heading in the right direction to use it - and filled can with water. We also had a new can so that was OK empty. I really don't remember the conversation about the genny - but it was emtpy. They argued about the fitted gas bottles as they coud not read the date stamp; we assured them that they came with the caravan which was eight years old, so in the end they believed us rather than hold the queue up any longer.
