I remember the corned beef of my Childhood, And the bread that we cut with a knife, When the Children helped with the housework, And the men went to work not the wife. The cheese never needed a fridge, And the bread was so crusty and hot, The Children were seldom unhappy, And the Wife was content with her lo...

Hi Some years back I changed my insurance on our house to Budget Direct, and received a good saving from our previous insurer. The premiums have increased a bit each year but reasonable we thought. They were recommended on here if I remember correctly. However my new premiums have arrived and I was sho...

The Police told me that they had a lot on just now and couldn't come right now. I waited a minute and rang "000" again, and told the operator that I had rang a minute ago but there w...

My friend has just come back from a trip through the South of NSW, VIctoria and SA. He was told in Adelaide by a man he met at the van park that Police are booking people who do not lock their coupling lever in the closed position. By locking, he meant that the coupling must have a pin in it to prevent the latch...

Did a quick search but couldn't find any other comments on this.We picked up our new caravan the other day with our 2014 BT50 Twin Cab. (Tare weight of van 2670Kg) About half an hour into the drive home (flat roads) we lost power. We just kept getting slower with hardly any throttle response. Stopped the...

There are plenty of ukulele songbook sites on the internet but this one that I found recently has to take the cake as the best. http://www.ozbcoz.com/Songs/ It's also a good resource for guitar players etc. So easy to download a song then print of in PDF form. Enjoy!

I got creative today and made a fan shroud for the Motor-Home. The radiator works OK most times, but on steep hills and very hot days the engine can get a bit hot.

Taken from another site. Thougth it worth a laugh A Tale of Two Crocs Two crocodiles were sitting at the side of Lake Burley-Griffin in Canberra. The smaller one turned to the bigger one and said, 'I can't understand how you can be so much bigger than me. We're the same age, we were the same size as kids....

Recently I saw an ad for a camo torch. Today I got a catalogue for a camo multi-tool. Why? What happens if you drop it? Can you find it? Prefer a bright coloured one in both cases. -- Edited by RustyD on Monday 27th of November 2017 12:50:16 PM
