Matilda Country Tourist Park was a really good place to stay. 'The Shed' was the centre of activity. They do a great roast dinner every night for a reasonable price, if you're feeling like taking a night off from cooking. They also had a singer at happy hour, (free) and wonderful Bush Poets in the e...

I'm wondering if anyone in the know could advise me about a 12v question I have. I have a 12v motor vehicle battery jump starter/air pump similar to the one pictured which I have used for a number of years. I just took it into a car battery place to get a new battery fitted as the old one gave up the ghost. The p...

Hi All. How many are aware of the FiftyUp Club? Over here in W.A, I'd never heard of it because theyre Eastern States based and just starting off in SA before finally moving into WA. Its free - you pay nothing and they say they have a membership of 200,000+. They go to companies like power/gas/water/in...

Yesterday we packed the van and headed out of Lightning Ridge for St. George. We traveled 30kms crossed a cattle grid BANG then the noise of metal dragging on gravel. Stopped on the shoulder. Head under the bonnet. Exhaust has separated from manifold. No mobile service. First passing vehicle stops....

Had to have the clutch replaced on my Hino Rainbow after it failed just 6 kms from home following a near 2,500 kms round trip to Narromine in NSW. Took it to Rockhampton Diesel Repairs at 243 Bolsover St and they had it repaired within a week, including some extra work to fix a small oil leak and cure the eng...

Hi folks, The last 3 days we have noticed a smell coming from the van especially when we first open the van at our destination. It is bordering on rotten egg gas. We tried putting liquid bleach down the sink thinking that was the cause. Now it may also be actually coming from the water heater as the wind...

I've recently read that the development of self driving vehicles is becoming a reality. People have even proposed that we will see driverless trucks on the roads within 10 years. Let's assume that all the technical obstacles are overcome and cars and tracks can get from A to B without driver interven...

Baptizing an IrishmanAn Irishman is stumbling through the woods, totally drunk,when he comes upon a preacher baptizing people in the river. He proceeds into the water, subsequently bumping into the preacher. The preacher turns around and is almost overcome by the smell of alcohol,whereupon,...

Wow!! has it changed since the last time I was here (30years ago.) Same as Katherine (NT) with self cleaning toilets and piped music in the streets. Hard to believe where in the outback. I so hope, I'm not going to be disappointed when I see Kununurra (WA). All my dreams will be shattered. We got here yes...

Just trying to put my head around hot water systems for caravans. we have a Suburban SW6DEA as many vans have these days. I think while they do a reasonable job I an wondering if anyone knows of a better heater especially such as a hot water heater that heats on demand. I realise they may be a bit heavier on g...
