Found this place on Wikicamps. Roy's Place, Elleker near Albany WA. The Wikicamps comments page suggest this is a good camp about 15 kms out of Albany no facilities other than 240 volt power. $5 unpowered $10 powered. Phoned the owner today and they definitely exist. Seems it could be a great place for...

My wife bought me a "pre-Christmas" present, a Waeco CFX fridge/freezer. It's one of the mid-range models but it seems to be big enough for what we want to do. It has a removable divider so that when in you have a freezer compartment and a fridge section. Or, remove it and either have all fridg...

I know this is probably one of those oft asked questions but I thought it worth asking again as these things often change . So the big fiscal question is " is Wikicamps worth the whole $8 they want for it" ? Cheers Al -- Edited by Swoffer on Thursday 12th of November 2015 11:01:47 AM

Yes Yes YES. Out the window go's our wish list. Will have to down size that, too treat ourselfves to cheaper Tuesday at the movies next week. Oh four numbers again =$23.15 I give up.

The smaller spider defeated the wasp on this occasion.

Probably the closest I have been to meeting St Peter, or the Devil, was in my teens we went hunting for Deer. The hills in NZ can get a little rugged at times, We were following a river up and up, when we came to an area which had slipped and the entire side of the hill (mountain over here) had collapsed into th...

What a fantastic free camp

Not really about caravanning but perhaps interesting to some..... I have had Telstra internet access since dial up days and the service just getting better & better .. We have cable (Co-ax) to our home and I eventually moved to the then minimum data allowance of around 5 or 8 gig/mth. SWMBO got a i...

My sullage hose has for the first time after many years gotten really stinky, and I mean STINKY!. It is one of the black ribbed types. Hot water and some cleaners down the sink haven't really helped. It sat in rolled up in the boot for a week, and now the boot pongs too. soapy water and glen 20 made only a smal...

Does anyone know if there is a company in Perth that rents out vehicles with towbars to tow 1800kg van short distances around Perth? I know there are a few rental Utes around with towbars, but not sure if they are for anything more than a box trailer. Thank you, John K

Hi , My wife and I are on the road full time and are currently in South Australia near Robe. We are looking for a place to stay over the school holidays. Somewhere quiet. We have looked at Randy Park Station in the Flinders Ranges and was wondering if anyone has stayed there. We realize it will be hot etc . An...

Freedom of flight

This shot was taken at The Winton Races in the heat and dust of a serious drought. The locals and tourist alike love the Winton race day. Despite the drought the community get together and have some fun.

OK, I thought I would like to start a new line of comments about how couples got started. There must be a lot of Funny, Lucky, Flooky and Strange stories out there. I will start the ball rolling and see what happens. ##################################### I was 14 at the time and waiting for the Sca...

I am sure that like me you have noticed the enormous amount of advertising that the car industry is throwing at us re price and their extended warranties. Back in 2000 a new Nissan Pulsar was $19990. Today similar or perhaps even better vehicles are selling for around the same price. One can only hope th...
