If you are freecamping or travelling in NSW especially in the Blue Mountains or west of the mountains also the whole of the Hunter region, it may well be a very good decision to find a caravan park and stay put for the day especially if you have set up camp in the bush. It is not only your life that you may save...

I drive the road from the Queensland border to the NSW Central Coast far more frequently than I'd wish (sometimes even with a van in tow) and it constantly amazes me to note that a somewhat unprepossessing RV/Caravan Park in the middle of the scrub on the eastern side of the Pacific Highway between Karu...

Saw something in the night sky slowly traveling from overhead to the north over Adelaide tonight around 9.30 pm. Satellite or something. Anyone know what it may have been? Cheers, John.

We purchased our Sirocco 11 fan the other day, attached a 12v plug, plugged her in and noticed a red light at the back of the fan, inside before you put the backing plate on. When you turn the fan on it flashes? Wondering is this normal? Can someone have a look behind theirs and let me know thank you. Kim

Any one who has ever gone to a Suzi Quatro concert will appreciate the good time I had at her Adelaide performance last night. She is now 66 years old and is still rocking as hard as when I first saw her 41 years ago at the Apollo stadium in Adelaide. Rock on Suzi. Cheers, John.

Hi Have looked in "Search" but just need to clear up a couple of things. Purchased a Sirocco 11 fan yesterday but the wiring is very thin. Someone mentioned they upgraded the wiring. If so to what size etc. And is it easier to buy a 12v plug including the wiring? Kim
