Unfortunately Judi and I will not get to the Nationals.
Our intention 8 1/2 months ago was to tour the big island in our 5th wheeler van for 18 months and coincide the QLD part of our trip with the Nationals (without a vehicle).
We sustained considerable damage to our van 6 1/2 months ago and have been in Ballarat ever since. Our legitimate claims through insurance have been rejected and we have been waiting over 3 months for a decision from the Ombudsman's panel with no timer frame in sight.
We are unable to move (and unable to provide publicly the damage sustained and the unreasonable reason for rejection at the moment) all we can say is that the estimate for repairs was over 103 thousand dollars and we are still battling it out.
Ballarat is a lovely area but we have now covered over 16 thousand K's looking around the whole district and beyond and are rather frustrated now.
We really hope every one has an enjoyable and safe trip to and from the Nationals with out incident and would like to wish the QLD / Toowoomba team the greatest success with their event.
cheers to every one and post up your travels so we can enjoy them .....and plenty of pictures please
regards

That sucks Bill!
Bloody insurance companies, who are you insured with?
We were really looking forward to seeing you & Judi in Toowoomba, we'll have a couple of drinks for you.
Cheers,
Graham

Hi Bill & Judi,
Sorry to hear of your continuing travails, and hope you get justice. It's a shame we shan't see you at the Nationals.
Best wishes,

The Nationals won't be the same without yourselves and Jim Altman there. You will all be missed but we will have to make the most of it and post some photos and let you know what's going on. I hope the Ombudsman gives the insurance company a kick in the arse and you have it all sorted soon.
Cheers Scotty

Thanks for the best wishes every one and thank you for your most generous offer Graham (but we wouldn't), we will have to catch up for a coffee again soon though.
Give us a call sometime when you are free.
