Have made it to Westmar today for my overnight stop. First stop was Wooroolin Wetlands. A cold nights minus 1.3. But had my hottie with me. Plenty of parking there, just north of Kingaroy. Last night at Kumbia where I was plugged Into power and had my little oil fin heater on all night. Warm as toast. J...

I went and renewed my Rego for the 4X4 a couple of days ago, and was told that next year I would not get a reminder for the Rego. This is something that we have been used to for eons now and it is ONLY DONE AS A COURTESY for us. So fellow GNs we will have to have a bunch of stickit notes all over the place to remi...

I just looked and noticed that the rabid nsw supporters are very Quiet this morning. Is it because they got flogged 26 to 6 last night at Lang park in Qld? And Krudd is back as PM, so QLD WINS on both fronts.Might be too early for certain people who need self medication before they post.Will be a great game i...

From today's Sydney Morning Herald: They live in a caravan more than a house, spend months at a time travelling around Australia and know more camping sites than most Australians have had cold beers on a summer's evening. But don't call John and Elaine Tickner grey nomads. They say they're part of a sp...

http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=cf0_1372050046 Can't help the language [ play on mute if sensitive to some of the more robust parts of the English language ] in this but it's a good example of how the bloke towing the caravan could have been in serious bother if everything turned to custard.

Hello Fellow Travellers, Well we have another caravan and Nissan Patrol. We have left Newcastle and have started out again. We are in Parkes today visiting with some friends.

I just got a rough quote for our Tassy trip and it worked out at $1158, just to get us and the van over there! That's not including a return trip. I couldn't believe it. Does that sound right to you guys? I'm in shock, I didn't believe it would cost so much. We are now considering trying to get cheap flights an...

Afternoon all. We are awaiting delivery of our new van, which has a Truma Avanti aircon. unit. The supplier has told us that a Honda 2.0kva inverter generator would suffice to operate it, providing no other 240 volt appliance is being used. This would be fine with us, as a 3kva is too big and bulky for our...

This is just for anyone heading for northern Qld (or already there). In addition to the famed Comfort Stop the good people of Home Hill have opened up their showground. And a very nice place to stop it is. It costs $10 a night for a powered site - the same for unpowered (they like to keep things simple) so...

A truely magnificent site to pause and reflect and not only on those who have given their lives in Afghanastan. It has be...
