Hi. This is our first time in the Forum. Although we have been caravanning we find that our satisfaction is not being fullfilled. We currently have a 21ft van (2.5 tonne ATM) with shower/toilet etc towed with a Patrol 3lt diesel. It feels like we are pulling a block of flats! We are missing out on all the a...

After baffling months of being unable to start a new topic I've suddenly found my way in again (still no idea why! ), so thought I'd ask if anyone's stayed in either of the two Inverell caravan parks? We're heading there on Wednesday, just to have a look around for a few days -- and to get away from the 40-to...

Does anyone have any suggestions of how to seal the hinge where my camper folds over? At least I think that's where the water comes in when she's folded up...driving along or sitting at home. For the life of me...and others I've asked...I can't think how to seal it without stopping the hinge from workin...

I have Telstra turbo 3G wireless pre pay, yesterday I found it very difficult to get it up and running properly without it dropping out or just not being able to access the net at all, to cut a long story short after about 4 hours I rang Telstra and spoke to 2 delightful Indian ladies that told me to do all sor...

You were all so helpful with my questions earlier that I thought I'd push my luck a bit and try another one. As I said before I'm brand new to this and I've only just bought my van - don't pick it up for another week and a half. Added to this is the issue that I haven't lived in Australia for a long time so I'm not...

Just a quick post. If you are travelling from Victoria up the NSW coast, do yourselves a favour and drop in for a couple of days at Eden. Can highly recommend the Garden of Eden Caravan Park. Heaps to see and do, wonderful scenery. Will post some photos once home.

Has anyone seen Ma lately, I see she hasn't posted since early December. Seems strange as she is usually quite a regular poster. Hope she's ok.

At a caravan dealership this morning to get an outside globe, and noseyed around inside the 5th wheelers they had (as you do). While they are all lovely and spacious with the slide-outs out, it looked like when the slide outs are in for travelling you wouldn't be aqble to access the kitchen, or the fridg...

I've just bought (well just put a deposit on really) my very first motorhome. I've got a few questions that extensive googling has failed to satisfy so I'm hoping that you good people on this forum will take a few minutes to help me. First, it's an Avan on a Fiat Ducato (chassis? motor? - I'm still vague a...
