We are looking at selling our caravan on consignment and were wondering if any here have done the same? What does it involve and how do they calculate their fees? At this stage we have not approached a company but perhaps in the New Year.

Hi All, Do people use water filter in-line on their hoses when they are filling their water tanks in their vans? If yes - what sort? How many microns? And where do you get them? Thanks in advance Chris

Does anyone know if there is phone & internet access at Boynedale campground? Also where is the new access road into the campground on the Calliope River near Gladstone? I think you can't go across the old bridge since we were there last. Any advice appreciated.

I have the photos so I know it's me, but the odd thing is I never received a bill. In fact I heard nothing unti...
