we are thinking of going in to Mt Palmer (south of Southern Cross) on the way past and are wandering if we should tow our van in or not. It is a 16' pop top but would rather leave it than damage it. Has anyone been in to the Mt. lately?

Bluewater van park is great $140 per wee...

I'm excited! I just bought a new 45lt three way fridge from Aldi for $299! I'd previously been given a very old 2 way fridge, which I gave to my daughter and son-in-law as it seemed more trouble and expense than it was worth, getting it connected to my little 'Lucy'. So my son is planning to convert Gypsy t...

A while back I asked on the forum where I may find a large kettle. Some kind soul suggested an Indian Emporium. Attached is what we finished up with for $49 - the kettle holds approx 17 litres and takes about half a hour to boil. Money well spent I thought. The stubbie is only there for comparison.. l...

I read that rent assistance can be claimed through Centrelink. I am a War Widow and am intending travelling May - October. Can I claim rent assistance for caravan parks when I am away from home?
