We have enjoyed the past two days of watching the Invictus Games on ABC TV. Has anyone else been watching them too? They commence around 3.40pm each afternoon & demonstrate better sportsman (women)ship than the Olympics, etc. Warren

Two and a half decades of caravaning hasn't stopped the occasional need for an answer to a newbie question. Just replaced the tow ball and put on a nice shiny chrome one. 100 ks later and a week by the sea this is what it looks like. I used a wax stick for lubrication, but it didn't stop what ever seems to be gr...

We were looking at getting a camec 4kg front loader but have heard bad reports that they go out of balance and use more water when trying to rebalance. They also are prone to breaking drum springs which has just happened to my sisters brand new one. Am now considering either a sphere 3kg or camec 3kg both t...

Hi, I am a total novice at this, but on the 2001 Jayco caravan I bought is this antenna (I'll try to attach photos) and device inside; "Aussie-Van Easy-Tune". Is this still current for watching TV while on the road? Or is it an obsolete system? There is a small flat-screen TV in the van attached to the cabl...

Theres n...

On a scale of 1 to 10 my interest in the Australian Football League and the AFL game is around -4. However I have become more and more irritated by the AFL's insistence in deeply involving themselves in political and social matters - it is not the place of sports organisations to moralise and lecture the...

Watched footage on Sunrise this morning of people texting while driving. One woman actually turned to the back seat to photograph her baby! These people had had cameras installed in their cars for three weeks to monitor their behaviour as they all initially denied ever using phones while driving....

One day, Pete complained to his friend, My elbow really hurts. I guess I should see a doctor. His friend said, Dont do that. Theres a computer at the drug store that can diagnose anything quicker and cheaper than a doctor. Simply put in a sample of your urine, and the computer will diagnose your problem a...

I have ended up with several extra 9kg gas bottles. What would they be worth? Aussie Paul.

Rural Fire Service (RFS) crews responded to more than 50 call-outs on the lower mid-north coast alone.The fire took a run under the strong westerly winds. The terrain and t...
