Hoods robbin!

The campsite.

The small campsite in the forest at Maa Mon Chin picnic ground has been raided. The Denali sleeping bag and expensive sleeping mats have been stolen. The two-person tent has been deliberately damaged. By an unfortunate coincidence, the ATM card was misplaced a few days ago and there's limited cash till a replacement card arrives. There have been many helpful people in Tas and this is the first unpleasant incident although a scan of the local papers demonstrates that it's not all sweetness and light down there. There are sketchy details of a suspect but not enough detail to make a report. In the meantime, the Paddy Pallin shop in Launceston is open today and they'll allow Ben to purchase using my card details.

update: Purchased two sleeping mats from the bargain bin. Camped the night near Moorina however the old sleeping bags aren't warm enough so back to Launceston tomorrow for the final day of the "40% off sale" at Paddy Pallin.
