I know this topic has nothing whatever to do with caravans or tugs or any other related matter but I am hoping that by posting it here there may be others in the same position and may offer some advice or thoughts on the matter. I hope Cindy approves as this kind of treatment is far too often swept under the c...

We are now at Clifton - showgrounds. $7/night with power & hot showers. We will probably stay a couple of days only as on Saturday is their annual race day at the grounds here. Might be fun but I think we will be surrounded by race goers making merry.

Because we have been in WA for over 2 years we have accumulated a lot of stuff which we do not wish to travel with. Frieght rates to NSW seem excessive. Does anyone have any ideas about sending cartons east that may not cost more than the contents of the cartons?

When we nomads get together we spend much time relating amusing stories of happenings along the road. I have been to Western Australia for the 3rd time this trip and by now should realise not to get off the road since so much of the West is sand. I made the mistake of going just slightly off the tarmac whic...

Does the purchase of 'things' for the van ever really end?. We keep saying "that's it" but along comes another good idea usually involving $$$$. Just received the approval for a subsidised sat phone - THEN THAT'S IT

A couple of months ago I posted a thread 'Enough is Enough' in which I raise the issue of magazine van reviewers that were praising vans that were (In my opinion) 'Unfit for Purpose'.

Hi again, (hope I have put this in the right place). It is now only 11 months until we leave for our 'big trip". We have to sell the house and everything in it.
