I am in a CP on the Great Ocean Road at present. When I rang to make a booking the lady informed me that tonight would be $34. A bit more than I was hoping to pay, but my batteries need charging and I need a shower so said I would like to book in for two nights. Imagine the stunned silence when the lady told me t...

We are booked on the ferry on the 12th Dec and plan to spend a couple of months down there. My sister moved to Margate (about 40 minutes south of Hobart) 5 years ago a...

What a day. Ventured on to Alexandra, chin wagged with local fishing shop identity, a wealth of knowledge for trout and general fishing, plus adding his input with info from the last Bushfires which ravishid the land I later travelled thru. The drive out to Eildon is very worth the time. Viewed the wal...

Fascinating place with a reasonable free camp that comes complete with lots of parrots, crimson rosellas and lots of other (less spectacular) birds. Some great walks to do to - though they are very hilly. It's deep in a valley so phones and inter...

We have been stopped over at the Berry showgrounds, just North of Nowra in NSW for 5 days. Pretty little town and the showgrounds are just great.
