I have posted a longer text about this place on the free camps topic, but be warned - its a dump and worth a max of $10 a night, not $25. The caretakers will also try to rip you off by charging you for the 7th night - when in fact it is free. Very limited power - what few are around the place require a standard 24...

when booking into some CTP's they ask the length of van, it's a 19"6 or 6 metres, yes but how long is it..... Am I missing something or do they go by tow bar to spare wheel. Which is 25" or 8 metres . it is registered as a 19"6 so that's what I tell them cheers OMD

Hi Everyone , I am putting car sunvisors on some of the windows and need suction caps. I have been to bunnings and they have none. I have looked on ebay and can only be bought when you buy an item to go with them. Do you know where I can get them? thanks.
