I'm liking the sound of the Cool Caravans and Cocktails night. Apparently a fleet (?) of vintage caravans from around Australia will make an appearance on the night...which makes me curious...
Hope you guys will be able to make it and see you then.
Sounds like a great time. Be sure and tell us all about it.
