If any GNs are members of CMCA & are using their 2014 calendar. Be aware that this month (November) has an error. They have skipped the 20th. & so all days/dates from then on until the end of the month are one day out. This has caused us major problems as we made arrangements before we noticed t...

We just checked the maps and at a rough estimate it would be around a thousand k's round trip off the Barkly/Flinders highway for either destination using sealed roads. A bit daunting to go to both places, which would you recommend???? and why? Comments please? Thanks!

Well we have done it. Bought a house in Buderim, moved in and looks like we are grounded, for a few months anyway. If anyone lives in the area we would really like to meet you. Also happy for visitors to the area to pop in if they'd like a cuppa, or, and a chat.

Hi, opened my van today to get some things out and it was so hot inside. 35 degrees outside and with cover on van and all locked up felt heaps hotter in the van. All the windows are shut so no air movement at all. What do others do to reduce heat in stored van over summer? I don't have a shed or carport available...

The trailer would contain a Suzuki Jimny, a 250cc trail bike plus a 12' tinny...
