As mentioned, Adelong didn’t get the memo so we had to travel a further 12 minutes to Tumut {yeah tough} to try and beat the rain storm that was forecast. Tumut was surprisingly busy given the roads had been pretty much free of traffic . When we arrived in Tumut, the Riverglade Caravan Park only had a few sites available. It was as if everyman and his dog had turned up. Well, as it turns out that’s exactly what had happened. It was the annual Tumut Dog Show. Yep. only we could be so well organised.
We did however consider taking advantage of the situation by enrolling Dexter as a late entry so that he could do a ‘Steven Bradbury’ and in a shock late move, take out the gold - but these dog lover types could get real cranky I reckon. (see below)
In my inimitable style I got a tad cranky with a late comer in the site next to us - they parked a car, a caravan and a motorhome on one site which would have made it difficult for us to reverse out in the morning. I mumbled a few choice words about the goose and said to Jayne ‘ I’m going to have to have a word with him - Then he struggled out of his car - on one leg. Blimey, didn’t I feel bad…..cranky old coot.
So, onwards and upwards to Jingellic and /or Walwa, whichever took our fancy.
