have just seen LPG at Woolworths Penrith with a price tag of 69.9 CPL and both BP and 7/11 close by at 62.9 CPL so much for the Woolworths 8 cents per litre discount think I might start shopping at local Super IGA. Purchased LPG last week in Penrith for 55.9 CPL now up by 14cpl in less than a week

Just seen on TV a story about a cruise ship that went aground & tipped over near the coast of Italy. 3 dead & more still missing. Should i worry? Our cruise leaves on 4th. Feb. Maybe I'll just wear my life jacket 24/7.

We are off on Monday to Lennox Head............only for 8 days but hey it's better than nothing and it is only an hour and a half away, hope the rain stays away though weather is something we have no control over so no point stressing over it.

Would be interesting to see how many members are travelling in older vans, say pre 1990. Photos would be good as well. Also if anyone has renovated an older van.
