Some weeks ago, some-one posted a beautiful Tropical Pool Pic. in the "Pick This Place" Thread. [ I think that's where it was.] Been trying to find it again, as I saved it, [ it's now my Desk-top Background.] but I can't remember where it was. I'm having a problem going back through the la...

Happy Easter to all grey nomads. I'm off to visit the grandkids, not sure who is more exicted. Am taking the kids on the Valley Rattler for a day trip and then doing the family day on Sunday including the easter egg hunt in the backyard. Gee might have to come back to work for a break .

My apologies if I get a bit long winded about the problem. As mentioned previously on forum, I recently, after the best part of fifty years, stopped travelling. I put my Mazda 4X4 and tiny 'van up for sale, and settled in Albany. But, now that I had "settled", I needed something bigger than...

I keep seeing people on their way to "who knows where", caravans hitched on, camper trailers, boats, rooftop tents - and I am so envious at this time. Oh, well hopefully this time next year I will be well on the way to heading off myself - just need to get over this year. Who else is having to sta...
