The Really Big Trip
(
1 2
)
(Preview)
I know the expression, The Big Trip, but I'm interested in hearing from people who are doing the Really big trip. ie. on the road indefinitely. That's what Marian and I plan to do whenever we start this adventure. Do a couple of "settlers" and then just go. Is anyone out there doing this?...

Anyone staying at Bingara?
(Preview)
Doesn't look very nice up there. Bingara is under water. The Newell from Moree to Goondi is closed as is the Gwydir. Just heard on the news a toddler drowned at Bingara, that is very sad. Are all our Grey Nomads safe, the weather has certainly been a bit uncomfortable the last two days.

Hi Everyone, in the grey nomad times it says we can use vinegar in the toilet. Is this to clean it on the outside with vinegar and water or to use vinegar instead of chemicals for the break down process? thanks.

My wife and I plan to become GNs in the nest 12 months, so we have huge gaps in our knowledge and lots of questions. Can someone help with a couple of basics - what are the average fees at dumps points and what's the cost of fresh water? Thanks a lot.

Tyres - Again

I've been through the previous threads on tyres, but now I want your help with clearing up the confusion. I was offered Khumo's for my L/Cruiser, but after reading the past reports, they're definitely off the agenda. Michelin's look favourable. I'm replacing the BFG A/T's. They've taken me aroun...
