Be careful with whom you leave your motorhome on consignment. We left ours with one particular company, much to our regret. We had advertised our 4X4 Sherwood motorhome privately, and were contacted by the original company that had sold it to us (2nd hand), offering to sell it on consignment. Thei...

Hi I have a Samsung Tablet that will only sometimes show the photos from this site. For instance under Jims posting of some of the plumbing for his new baby I can not see the pictures, however under his posting of the electric brakes I can. Does anyone know why and how I can fix this. Thanks Pamela

We have a Gasfuse regulator which has just blown the glass off the top. We could smell gas and went to check and the glass was off. My husband tried to put it back on but it just blew off when we turned the gas back on. Something else to keep an eye on. Naturally we are going to replace it with a new one.

Why is it that city centric government persist in replacing a problem with a problem and continue to introduce rules that have the potential to cause major pile ups on our roads . Come March 2016 the NSW government will bring in new push bike motor vehicle separation rules . In areas under 60 KPH mo...
