We don't have a washing machine in our van but lots of people do. Friends were telling us recently that on their recent trip, they found that in some parks people were NOT allowed to use their own washing machine. I wonder why?

Tagging electrical cords

(Preview)
Has anyone been told they have to have their electrical cord checked and 'tagged' before they can book in to a caravan park?

Fishing Haven, Palmers Island near Yamba

Planning a jaunt to warmer climes, and wondering if anyone has stayed at this small park on the Mclean River. I like the look of it on Badgers, and would be interested in other opinions if you have any. I like to park near the water, and if I can thrown in a line and catch tea, all the better.
