Thanks mate, we’re lucky the fire behind us a few months ago has been put out I think, unfortunately it claimed binna burra lodge( Gold Coast ). These photos are from a friend of mine on the Nsw south coast near Bega on Saturday 1 bigmal reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
