The Grey Nomads - General

I am a new owner of a 21' caravan and have been searching for a good caravan cover. There are so many to choose from, most of them claiming to be the best, so I thought it be wise to ask the forum members which ones would be best to consider. Any suggestions? Thanks Kurt

I have had two reversing cameras that have stopped working on my caravan after a couple of months of use. I run them constantly when driving and am thinking they may be burning out. Does anyone else have this issue? Thanks Nage

Thought I would let everyone know that the Gin Gin Show Grounds (King St) west of Bundaburg QLD not only is a great place to stay with friendly caretakers etc but now has a Dump Point. It is located next to the mens toilets. It wasn't here when I stayed last year unless I missed it of course.

Hello all - I am having trouble with the drainage hose on my grey water tank. It is leaking where it joins onto the tank so I am thinking I will have to buy a new hose and perhaps a new tap. Could someone please advise me as to what I need to buy and also the best place to buy it from. Thank you in advance.

ABC Darwin 105.7 use this as an indicator of whether were in the "dry season" yet in the top end. It measures the amount of "Grey Nomads" that are camped up at the Robbie Robins reserve & is apparently far more accurate than the BOM's measurements. Went past today & it's...

The WA quarantine website states that home dried fruit and vegetables will be allowed in if inspectors are satisfied they are sufficiently dried and free of pests. Wondering what people's experience is? Claire

As I write this I am sitting at home grounded for a few weeks, why because I have just had some significant and expensive eye surgery to solve a problem that I could have picked up before it was a problem.
