just clicked that the local cop in Mansfield is a c##t and the trip is kind of on a long weekend. can go the back way to jamieson and stick to the original plan or if you guys really want can meet in licola instead, only problem is it will be about an extra hour in the day. Let me know what you want to do. Also is anyone else going to be staying Sunday night

Thanks for the heads up Antony. I think there are 2 options
1. Go through some back roads around mansfield to avoid entering the town centre. But it means that we may miss the servo (if fuel is an issue)
2. Go south through Eildon to Jamieson (about an hour drive, 60)
