This is for Windows but, I imagine, is almost identical for Mac: Copy the link (URL) into the clipboard eg. http://www.bom.gov.au/vic/fo...

Diesel heater.
(Preview)
Diesel heater cuts off after half hour. Going great again bit after. No timer set. Think maybe green fuel tube crap stopping fuel ? No Error code coming up. Will reducing temp setting help. Currently 26c. ?

ABC radio news: Two men dead overnight in a tent in the Omeo caravan park apparently from CO positioning from a gas heater - maybe jerry rigged? $25 may well save your life - you cannot smell or taste CO you simply fall asleep and never wake up.

I posted a video in the Jokes section of horses laughing at a guy trying to reverse a horse float. I think that it may have been frowned upon by some who who believe we should help anyone who cant back a trailer.

Alternatives to an annex

Hi all, We have a forward fold camper which is a ripper apart from one thing. The annex is made of 14oz Bradmill Kordux and is as heavy as a small planet and about as easy to manage. There's a pic of the camper set up in here. As you'll see in the Piliga pic it's a big annex. It's held on by a good quality zip and...
