Hi all. We are continuing our investigations on what form of van to purchase. Can anyone give me an idea on whether there are restrictions on long vehicles (such as 5th wheelers) in van parks around Australia?... Would love to hear ideas and experiences. Donz

I'm loving it! I have been sharing time with "Mr & Mrs" Cupie. I met them in Brisbane through the GN forum almost 2 years ago. Now they're on my turf. It's always great to sit down over a cuppa or glass with fellow nomads.

What's that noise you can hear?? That's the sound of creaking suspension and old bones! Gubby and the delightful Mrs Gubby should be on the road today. Have a safe and enjoyable trip Mr & Mrs Gubby. Dusty

Hi there fellow travellers Wondering if you could help us out. I emptied the caravan water tank a couple of weeks ago and it has resulted in a bad smell coming from the water tank. Have filled the tank since and smell is not as bad but still lingering around. Does anyone know the best way to clean the tank o...

(I've wanted to tell Felicia where to go a few times!). Well, Felicia is finally ready for her shakedown trip. Mum has graciously agreed to not go TOO far in case I need to drive and rescue her (from what, I don't know). So.... Can anyone suggest a good spot to go for a couple of nights, no more than an hour...

Hi all Have been looking at cars over the past few day... would love a land cruiser but at $120 000 its hard to justify. I'm putting my vote towards a Nissan Pathfinder.

Hey all, We have done our time at Birdsville, and are now in the Winton region for a couple of months. Have landed a job on a cattle property about 80k south of Winton. Weather is dry, and getting hot, but mornings are still a bit cool. The Nissan is behaving herself, and the kedron is a dream to tow.Any GN...

We have arrived in Bingara. Down by the river, lovely and serene. Quite a few other nomads here, none yet that I have come across from our forum, so if you are out there make yourselves known. Will stay here for a couple of days or three and then head on down to Tamworth.

We are heading off on our first shakedown trip on Saturday. Going from Brisbane to Gladstone (Inland) and coming back the bruce highway. This will be our chance to test everything and do any adjustments before we head off in January

That is "Delivery Day". After waiting 5 agonising months I finally get my new van tomorrow. Now the fun starts. I think I'll drag it down to Bathurst for the big race next month. That should be a good shake down trip to sort out any bugs if they exist. Yeeee Haaa. Doug
