hi all nice to meet you all , at such a lovely spot , It was a great day,

Just bought a new Jayco Silverline Outback any pros or cons to look out for. Picking up in 7 days.

Oop's, I put this in General and should have put it here in I Digress, naughty boy. I get the feeling that there are a lot of Sand Gropers in the Grey Nomads, so I thought if you haven't seen this it might bring back a few memories, especially some of the cars in Hay Street opposite London Court. Simmo. ht...

Has anybody got any links to sites to find lost super? If so it would save me a bit of searching if you could put something up on here. Thanks in advance.................Simmo.

Gday... Cheers - John

I have noticed in various remarks on the subject that some people use all types of 20lt drums to contain their grey water, so I went looking for something with wheels on it as the back is not much chop these days, there are plenty available on google. Having then read the CMCA policy on Self Contained Vehi...

Caravan parks and the Showgrounds are not what I call good value BUT we now have a park opened up at Roma Gun Club which is very good value with spotless amenities and large sites for aprox $10 per night cheaper.We stayed for a week and had gun noise for less than an hour on Thursday night only,$25 per night...

We found it does not pay to leave the cap of the toilet cassette on the side of dump point pit. Knocked it down the hole. Lesson learned $20 later for new cap. Olive oil helps slide when applied to rubber lip seal for easier sliding.

After picking up our new van a couple of weeks ago, the weekend just gone was our first trip away. A massive 70km from home (and that was the long way there ). At an ATM of 2740kg the Triton (3000kg ATM) certainly knows it's pulling something now. The Jayco Camper and the 15' Crusader pop top we previously h...

Temperatures got down to 24 F (-5 C) and charging LFP at temperatures below C will supposedly cause degradation of LFP cells. Have put a remote thermometer ($18 US at any hardward store) in same compartment as the battery suite. It only got down to 40 F (5 C) due to fairly good insulation (walls are abou...

we have had our Bailey Valencia for just over 12 months. Every time we go to use it, there appears to be small piles of wood dust sometimes interspersed with little black dots. We have assumed it may be coming from ants and last time when we packed up the van, my husband sprayed thoroughly around the outsi...

Big hello from us both Dave and Addy We are a couple of expats (British) and decided we had had enough of the rat-race so in may this year we sold everything and now we are just travelling around Asia. Recently we went to Brisbane to look at a nice little 4x4 rig and we liked it so much we have ordered one and s...

hello i,m thinking of fitting a friction sway control to my Pathfinder that tows a two axle Windsor Genesis caravan, what do fellow nomads think of this device ?

Hi All, Hubby & I have ordered our new caravan which we will be taking delivery of next June. We have previously camped so are looking forward to some luxury. For our first trip we are driving from Brisbane to Melbourne to collect the van, then then off to Darwin. We are taking 6 weeks to do this and w...
