A popular New Years resolution for many people is to try & live a healthier lifestyle. We didn't actually make a resolution to lose weight & get fitter at the beginning of 2015. As fairly recent retirees (4 years) we seemed to be celebrating our retirement a little too much. We slowly gained we...

We have had two Coromal caravans, upgrading from a pop-top to a 545 Lifestyle which we have had for almost ten years. Changing circumstance has us leaning towards a motorhome and specifically the new Avida Birdsville C7424 with the slideout. As these rigs are built to order it is difficult to actua...

OK if this is out of order I am sorry and the mods can, bin it but, I will ask anyway. I am very curious to hear from people who have had Bypass Heart Opps, and how they are traveling years down the road. I read somewhere that Bypass Opps are on average good for about 10 to 12 years. I had my Triple Bypass in Feb 2...

Ducks as pets took a new meaning on for me recently - we were staying at a van park in Busselton (WA) and decided to go for a stroll to the beach. Walking just in front of us were a young Asian couple carrying a large white duck. When they reached the beach they placed the duck on the sand and the lady then wal...

Been an interesting day at Greens. As well as the mass exodus of grey nomads over the last two days Judy (Barina) and I have been watching all the day trippers fill up the banks of the lake. Instead of rows of vans etc, it has been rows of tents. Of course that meant from about 4pm till just now, about 9.30pm t...

Hi There. How many are coming to Tamworth for the festival ?...Hope to meet some of you when I do my annual poster run from Lindsay and Shazza Leigh at L.B.S.

I have noticed that there is some confusion over the correct spelling of a world war two abbreviation. Being a pedantic old codger I feel compelled to put the record straight. FLAK (note no c in there) is an abbreviation of the german word Fleigerabwehrkanone which, literally translated, means Pilo...

So they stopped.George, their leader, a big burly man of 53, gets off his Harley, walks through a group of gawkers, past the State Trooper who was try...
