Nice Ganesh!! sounds like fun, unfortunately I will not be able to stay for the bbq. Guess the ghosts will have to do without me
BBQ depends on Ghosts…
:-s Sleeping with the ghosts … who can?
😕 May be that is what you want … us not sleeping:thanks: Ganesh!
I am in for the afternoon drive … unfortunately I cannot stay for the BBQ or camping.

bring spirit to keep the ghost away & also the sleep :p :p :p :p :p
Would sleeping in the car be allowed?
quote hutong:Would sleeping in the car be allowed?Hi Hongbin, I think sleeping in the car means camping too …in fact sleeping anywhere other your own bed constitutes camping probably …ok Hotels might be an exception, you’ll have better protection from invasive spirits packed up in your LR than those under canvas 😀

Thanks Brian. I thought owning camping gear may also be a requirement for DOs. Will figure out the best way and decide.
Hutong will be the best person to negotiate in Dragon Mart for such camping equipments
quote DAVID:Hutong will be the best person to negotiate in Dragon Mart for such camping equipmentsthe other day I walked DM looking for camping equipment and came up with a negative, if you have seen it in DM David please share
:thanks:
Won’t be able to make a drive Friday sorry guys. Hope you all enjoy.
Am in for a Saturday drive though if there is to be one.
And on the camping gear in Dragon Mart, as per Brian’s message, there is no camping gear in Dragon Mart. There is one lone shop and it has nothing worth buying. Least not that I found.
