Camping at Fortescue

---

Verdict: The trip was a great success. A long walk was undertaken, a great deal of alcohol was consumed, and a generally good time was had. And now we're all well and truly buggered.

How it came about

---

Vanessa had a great idea, camping at Fortescue. Ivan had some friends and demanded they come along. And so this epic event was hatched, and shall commence on Friday 20th of January and cease on Sunday the 22nd of January. Ivan has booked three large campsites at the Fortescue bay camping grounds to accomodate this orgy of nature.

Please coordinate your efforts with others to ensure we have appropriate wildlife and parks passes for our cars, tentage, foodage, survival gear (clothes?), and whatnot!

I don't want to see any tents with only 1 person staying in them, as we will run out of space if we pull that kind of malarky, so please organise someone to bunk with if you don't have someone already.

I don't want to see anyone going hungry, so bring enough food for 2 days + snacks.

And most importantly! I don't want to see anyone without enough alcohol to last them 2 nights.

There is definite potential of activities such as snorkeling, swimming, beach cricket, frisbee, bushwalking, drinking, power chucking, drinking some more, and eating. So please come appropriately equipped.

There will be a barbeque on the Saturday night, apparently there is barbeque facilities in the campsite. So I want to see plenty of drinking and eating of barbeque goods. In other words, bring some barbeque stuff for that night. And I don't want to see JUST meat and bread. Salad stuff is important too, you lecherous disgraces of man. Potato chips and derivatives will suffice as salad, fyi (although they must be eaten by the kilogram)

Activities and the gear to bring

Wetsuit - A must for Tassie waters if you want to swim. And you need to swim to clean other peoples chunks off yourself and to not smell. 'sif own wetsuit.
