Amazingly, I may even be getting the whole family up this year and hopefully both T3 vans.
Got to build up the numbers!
Getting close now...

C’mon Scotty…..it wouldn’t be Old Bar without your weather prediction ! 
I’ll be packing the OB necessities…..crocs, ( THE wet weather footwear of choice….) board shorts and zinc.
Looking forward to catching up with everyone……it’s been a while since a “normal” Old Bar 
Cheers,
Mark

Ive actually heard there has been sightings of Crocodiles well south of the Qld/ NSW border....if the water warms enough maybe there could be some at Old Bar  .
Seriously though, my phone weather only goes to Thursday 29th which says 80% chance of rain and only 22 degrees with 10 degrees overnight.
We may be in for a wet event!
I'm going regardless.

I’ll “see’” your prediction, and “raise” you a “sunscreen required” for Sunday morning / midday………
And yes, we are also going regardless.

Anyone that goes to Old Bar not prepared for rain has most likely never been to this event before !

Sunblock …..check,
Crocs………….check,
Beverages….check,
Firewood…….check,
Surfboards….check,
‘reckon I’m almost ready to point the kombi North…..

I can’t fully agree with you Mark, as my first Old Bar was 2009.
Was so good, we tried to schedule the event into each years diary, but it never became an annual event for us, and had to become a bi-annual event, some years.
Lost count on how many we’ve been too over the years, but weren’t there for the torrential nasty ones……..
Like insurance, if you pack gum boots, drizabone, umbrellas etc……..you probably won’t need them.
Either way, good weather is just a bonus, to the fun and good company.
We’ll see what pans out weather wise……….

Good weather is most certainly a bonus given that we’re camping !

The current forecast is a bit ugly - almost X rated.
Not sure if it is suitable for public broadcast
