Ozzie Traveller has woken up

[Ozzie_Traveller]

G'day everyone

For the last 16 months or so I have been far too busy co-ordinationg a national survey into the camping habits and expenditure of those campers called "Free-Campers / Freedom-of-choice Campers". The final report has now been done and released, and I can now get back to some photo stuff

It's going to be hard for me as my artistic energies have been depleted over this period as I have had to direct / concentrate my energies elsewhere

ps- if anyone wants to see the camping report copy the line below into your browser ...

I hope to catch up with many of you again over the next little while

Good to see you up and about Phil.

Hello again Phil.
Lovely to see you back.

Great to see you back. Interesting report too - I'm not a 'free camper', but would like to see more options for travelers who don't want to pay for jumping castles and giant swimming pools with waterfalls etc

Hi Phil, welcome back ..
I will share it with my friend who is having getting a custom made caravan built and will be travelling with their spaniel Bosun and will be travelling down south when their house sells.

We have much contraversy here in Cairns over campervans .. mainly backpackers who just set up along the Esplanade but locals don't like it .. and neither does the council. Lots of hoohaa. Here is an article from the Cairns Post.
