Have been trying for days to get the photos I promise uploaded to the original thread. For some reason I can't get in to Advanced Editor, then had a brainwave to start a new topic and it's worked.

We are looking to purchase a CT2500 Camper Trolley to move our tandem 18' van. They are fairly pricey, happy to pay if they are as good as claimed. Interested in any feedback that users may be able to offer, particularly if it works well on grass.

Hi we have rented our house out for 12 months and are getting ready to head north. Not sure where we will end up. we are going to house sit in Monto for five weeks starting mid June. Maybe we will come across other Grey Nomads in our travels. rastas

We're currently in Murray Town and want to move up to Quorn as a basis for further exploration of the Southern Flinders Ranges. Camps 7 and Wikicamps don't identify any free or low cost sites around Quorn and I was wondering if anyone here had any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

We are about to head off around Aus. on permanent basis, and would love to hear of any other nomads experiences with mail redirection. We have a permanent Post Office Box in Victoria, but when you're on the move all the time, I imagine it is going to be a little confusing for the Post Office to redirect.

Hi Does anyone know of a mail forwarding agency, based in Victoria, which will provide a street address, not just a PO Box? Regards, Derek

Found a great free camp site not listed in Camps7, this one is worth a stop if in the vicinity. If coming from the south turn right onto Bezzants road and follow a few hundred metre's, pass under railway bridge, it is on crown land, I believe there is no time limit.

On TV today, the manager of Cable Beach Caravan Park was saying that this year both the off season and on season numbers of people staying at their park and others in Broome were down. A Caravan Industry spokesman said this was because more people were having cheap holidays overseas.
