Didn't you put the awning in , no I thought you did.

When I saw the post about the Revolve Swivel Chairs I was very interested but unfortunately you can't get them sent to Australia from USA. Fortunately I came across a Ray's Outdoors catalogue which has virtually the same thing made by Wild Country. Bought 2 and found that they work really well when you...

Hi Everyone, Does anyone travel and have rheumatoid arthritis? Would you tell us how things are for you on the road. Thanks.

Hi all, Clint out plumber is giving us costing to do the lot. He came around last thing to fix yet another miss hap that my brush cutter loves taking out the front garden tap at the base. When he had finished, I invited him to have a look at the new wheels in the shed as he has brought a second hand Windsor van h...

Is there a riverside campground in or around Albury? I'm just looking for a quiet overnighter with power.

On our last trip traveling from Mt Isa to Cloncurry, our first stop was to visit the Pharmacy, perfect spot to park or so we thought directly opposite, pulled in all good until two lovely local ladies drew to our attention that our awning was a hair breath away from a huge cement pole. If we had driven off w...

I will be in Busselton in early July this year. Yes I know it is in the WA School holidays and likely to be busy. Can any one recommend a caravan park to stay at. Preferably not filled with school kids and not one filled with as I call them ferals that believe what you own should be theirs. Thanks. Also is any o...

Sorry if this subject has been covered before. The RTA in Qld say that there is a need to check with the rulings in other Australian States when travelling interstate. So what do we do when the gcvm is illegal? I realise this may seem a silly question, but I genuinely need to know. I really don't want to be t...

After long and tiresome meetings with the Surf Coast Shire we have had a win, the camp area along the Barwon River in Winchelsea Vic has been reopened for a 12 month trial period starting 1st April 2016, if you are traveling this way please take advantage of this great spot as we need to show a need for it to...

Some advice please.... We are staying on a friend's property outside Perth for a few weeks, plugged into his 240v power. We have a compressor fridge and use the air con for a couple of hours in the afternoons. When we leave, we would like to leave enough money to cover the power we have used (although he w...

Hi to all forum users. I am seeking your input to assist with my trip planning. Has anyone towed a 22ft highway van into and stayed in the Takarakka Bush Resort caravan park at the gorge in the months of June / July, what were the facilities like, how good was the road once the blacktop was left, and were th...

After dealing with Jayco Sydney today, on the telephone following up our complaints with our new van. To be told by a service tectnician, there's nothing our Sydney Agent can do, as they are directed by their Melbourne office. I feel We need a Judicial government enquiry into the industry to cal...

Finally took the beast for a week.end camp. Couldn't take much gear, as we have issues in the weight department. Tended to pitch a lot, and was sensitive to the wind (sideways sway), but semi-trailers didn't effect it. As for the TV, poor reception, not watchable. Looks like I have to get a WDH, the plac...

Just saw a lady empty her night wee bucket into her sullege drain point instead of walking the 15 metres to the toilet block. Do u think this is ok or should she have emptied into the toilet. Your opinions r valued by me. Kind regards. Rocket

We bought a DMAX last year and I'm in the setting up stage for our BIG trip. We have a Conquer UEV-490 off road camper it has an Elephant on the side. Our first tip is up in th...

Not sure if this is the correct segment of the forum to use "recommendations" but I am utilizing it for the benefits of other Grey Nomads traveling the North West WA looking at places to stay and things to do while in the area. This is the first post of this nature and I hope to add more from our tr...
