Tibooburra
(Preview)
For any body heading out to Tibooburra, the price of diesel is $1.67 and I must say that I was very pleased.

Hello again. I am challenged with taking my two grandsons, 7 & 9 years old, and their father on a Caravaning trip, starting in Goulburn NSW. I am expecting that anything longer than 2 - 3 days could be risky as a first time event, and anything too far away just as risky. I am hoping that someone may have...
