New experience and how to do it with a van
(Preview)
Just spent the last week or so on a houseboat on the Murray. Always wanted to do it, had the chance and did it. Next time, it will be on the Hawkesbury where I have always wanted to do it. Only problem is that how can I get a van the will do both, road and water? Seriously had a ball.

Prescription medication on the road.
(Preview)
I suspect this topic has been broached before. I'm on permanent heart medication, and will need to renew prescriptions on my travels. Is it difficult to see a GP without being a regular patient, just for prescription renewal and a checkup?
