If I get gored by a herd of roo's I'll try to photograph it...
Last time I went in, there were literally hundreds of them everywhere you looked...

I haven't camped in a long time. But, I got lots of land to discover on my ATV.
I got a new canvas pump up swag recently and want to try it out...

It's the Rolls Royce of swags...
Why don't you get yourself a camper. Fash and her old man have a motor home. They aint that expensive for a second one. You could probably get a good deal right now. It aint any of my business, I am just thinking out loud.

Don't have the room for it and backing one into the property would be hell on earth plus this way I can air condition the smaller swag on solar in the daytime...

They do require a lot of space which is why we keep ours at my mother in law's house.

Are you saying you have a small cooler that runs on solar power?

Yeah.... it only draws about 220 watts and can run on rechargeable battery packs.
Mine hasn't arrived yet but it's winter here anyway... it'll be a life saver come next summer...

Started as a canvas bed roll used by itinerant Aussie workers with the sleeping materials rolled up in them but has evolved into a hybrid of a bed roll and a bivy tent.https://youtu.be/ICpGWutg52A
That is a good camping idea.
