Can forum members in the know, advise as to how to get/start into house sitting? I have done it for friends so I know roughly what it entails. Does one register with a business that deals in this sort of thing? Regards Chris

Hot water outlet on the caravan literally blew off yesterday. Found a plumber and a new fitting. It was brass not plastic so was confident it would be strong enough . Fitted it and bingo had hot water again. But after a shower today the hot water outlet blew off again !! Is there a thermostat somewhere ?...

I am looking at a jayco heritage or stirling, as I thought that they had a reputation for quality, however I heard recently from a traveler that they are much the topic of conversation in parks, and for entirely the wrong reason??? Any comments Rod.

Hi everyone, we are about to buy our first van, but we need some caravan towing skills, especially reversing (plus the basics). Can anyone recommend a driving school. We are in the Sydney area.

macka, you might be the person who knows the answer to this, if not some of the gurus may be able to assist. Do modern day caravans have a 12v DC isolation switch? My Jayco Discovery & a friend's StarCraft are the same as each other. There is a "DC" switch inside the vans - from what I can see, this switch...

Hi there, thanks to all in advance. We are looking to do our first real trip and the following is the possible itinerary. Could anyone help us with suitable stops with WC's a must. Could hang out for showers etc and spoil ourselves every now and then with a van park or the like. Happy to sit in the Truck/g...

Hi, how is the road from Goulburn via Crookwell and Tuena to Blayney? Sharp curves? Steep? From googlemaps it looks to be completely asphalted. True? Caravan-suited? Thanks!

Hi All As we are very new to caravanning and planning our first big trip up north, I would like some advice on how long we should stay and where at Uluru and Alice Springs. We have no time barriers. Also could you give me some advice on what to buy so that I can keep my Weaco 50 litre fridge going on battery po...

Dear GN Members, I would like to hear from anyone who is travelling in a small caravan we have an "A" Avan. We love it and have had some great shorter trips in it. I am wondering how it would go for a longer trip. Cheers DonnaC

Apologies in advance for the elementary question, but I'm wondering about the best anchor point for the cable. When I collected the van the dealer just hooked it onto the safety chain D shackle, which surely can't be right. Also, my cable is quite long and I'm concerned about it getting tangled. So guy...

Visited Swan Hill for 4 Nights Noisy Feathered neighbours at the Caravan Park caused early morning swearing. plus an Incontinent Possum christened the Tent on the last night. Now at Wentworth for 2 Nights then North to Broken Hill.

unlocked the caravan door from outside this morning and the barrel came out. I tried to fit it back in - won't work. So like an idiot I closed the caravan door which I now can't open. I understand it can be forced but you need to know exactly where to force it. I've left a message for a mobile repair person but...

Hi all. I have done this post as I knew nothing about what I am about to try and explain so thought there might be someone out there as silly as me and this might just help them. For those that already know about this, sorry, you will think I am so silly. Sorry again, but I already know that I have a Thetford C2...
