Calling the RACV is not an option. I will win. Because I'm a man - I can be relied upon to purchase...

I searched for this topic but found no recent info. So maybe I might have a tip that will help save a marriage or friendship or two. A Sage, friendly C/P person gave us some advice on the weekend. When reversing the rig "use you mobile phones for communication". We tried it when we got home and a...

We have a Gasfuse regulator which has just blown the glass off the top. We could smell gas and went to check and the glass was off. My husband tried to put it back on but it just blew off when we turned the gas back on. Something else to keep an eye on. Naturally we are going to replace it with a new one.

i really don't know what it is with parking and motorhomes. I have recently purchased a new sun liner/ranger motorhome which is fully self contained. I had been driving on and off for nearly nine hours so thought that I would call in to my former club, Panthers in Penrith. Quite a large club. I renewed my...

Just letting you all know that the free camp at Kershaw Gardens is again open for self contained campers. it's been closed for nearly a year (since the cyclone) and has taken this long to repair the problems, exposed asbestos medical waste sharps etc. I hope this will help some of you in the future trip p...

They also have an area where people who wish to camp away from dogs (because some people don't like dogs) c...

Now this will leave any Army marching a lot to be desired, It's 12 minutes long, but well worth seeing, "How on earth" did they not hit each other while marching backwards. !!! http://www.youtube.com/embed/Ba8IH6EfGqU K.J. -- Edited by kiwijims on Monday 28th of December 2015 11:05...

MERRY Christmas to all and your families. My better half and I are looking to trave the long straight road (Nullarbor) from Perth to central Victoria mid Jan 2016 and am wondering if anyone has any current info or tips on fuel and free night stops etc. Maybe even a van park or two? Need to get there a littl...

If anybody is wondering where my post in the jokes section, "Who can you trust" has gone, well the 2%ers told the Moderators it was Racist and to take it down which they did. The interesting thing is, it wasn't Racist when I put it up, it suddenly became racist after 3 days and 20 plus comments...
