Felix Baumgartner
(Preview)
This Austrian guy skydived from 24 miles up and broke the speed of sound while freefalling. I can't help thinking though that had he been a New Zealander he wouldn't have used a parachute, he would have used a bloody long bungee cord! Andy

Large WA Car Dealer Closing Down RV Yard
(Preview)
The largest new and used car dealership in WA is closing its RV yard and returning to its core business. Apparently this is because of the general downturn in the economy in that business and it is no longer profitable. I doubt they will ever return to selling RV's again.

Too many Gadgets.
(Preview)
Was thinking about this last night and claim to the conclusion. Some nomads or people wanting to be nomads spend so much time gathering everything they think they might need, they end up never getting out there or putting back their trip by months or years. It has taken them that long to get the best of e...

Few months later we are driving along, and on checking my mirrors I noticed the window unlocked and moving about. Stopped, fixed it and no more problems. Today, at ho...
