We have found in some places we have stayed that fellow travellers like to camp rather close to us, well,....it may be they park close to others as well but i tend to think that we are such lovable people that it's a complete pleasure to bask in the glow of just being near us.

Head of Bight has been recommended several times on this forum as a good place to view Whales. I keep notes of recommended places in my (big) book, but havent been able to find "Head of the Bight" in my atlas. Sorry to show my ignorance, but where is it?

I know we have a food forum but, like me, I think many people only occasionally have a glance at it so I thought it best to ask this question on the main forum. When camping away from power in the hotter climates our freezer isn't the most reliable & the waeco struggles a bit also as our battery has its mo...

I picked up Myrtle this afternoon, all done and a lot poorer. Have spent a bit of time with a bucket of hot soapy water giving a wipe out of cupboards, shelves and doors. Worked out where and what a few things were. Layed out the canopy and tarp and wiped a few cobwebs off. Had found a large black spider in the...

Goodmorning everyone reading the difference in the cost of registrations in the states would be a good idea if rego was the same throughout Australia also the same goes for road rules would certainly make it much easier all round. Helena.

He said that a lot of them, probably including...
