Hello, is there anyone in Darwin or does anyone know of some person or business in Darwin that we could contact to check out a fifth wheeler we have seen for sale there.

Just hope every one will be OK in the SE Qld area after all the rain that has fallen over the last 24 Hrs. A friend lives on the Brisbane River West of Brisbane.

Just intend having a b...

I just watched about 7 YouTube movies of ordinary people finding gold with a detector. I didn't see any where they didn't find any so therefore EVERYONE will ALWAYS find gold. Jokes aside some of the small nuggets were worth over $200. But just being out in the bush looking seemed like a good thing to...

Like a recipe I found this method consistent when breeding gents, known here in South Australia, a very successful bait for garfish, tommies or herring and many other species as well. 8 or so live gents on a size 7 limerick hook will catch multiple fish before rebating therefore a rapid way to catch you...
