I have just recieved my latest Caravan and Motor home magazine and to my distress I read that in Townsville there is a depressed Wombat who is needing lots of cuddles and attention, has anybody seen Wombat recently because this could be contagous and we would miss him terribly

We have a coleman porta potti for sale if anyone wants it. It has never been used and is in Perth at the moment. About $75 would be a good price i think.
