Hi all. This is an old and well flogged subject, but we have had a really unusual experience driving west across the Nullaboor from about Echla. Nearly all RVers waved or raised a finger (not rudely I hope) and probably about a half of those driving non RV vehicles. We even counted 7 road train drivers...

Just wondering if a 12 pin plug will do the job on its own for running the fridge etc while driving. I have been told by the person selling the caravan that an anderson plug is not needed as we will get plenty of charge thru the 12 pin flat plug.

Hi all. I am about to have another go at enjoying the wide open spaces with my Mum and my two adorable Mutts. We have had a 12 month set back to our plans due to some major health issues for Mum who is now thankfully on the mend. In November last year we set off in our new van from home near Toowoomba in Queensla...

We are preparing for a two year trip and could you some advice on the best way to stay in touch with friends and family while on the road. Could fellow travelers who believe they have the best option provide some recommendations e.g. mobile phone, lap top, tablet, carrier pidgeon etc. Cheers

Hi all If you are a friend of mine on facebook I have closed my account. Reason being that someone hacked my details and loaded porn all over the groups I had joined and enjoyed. I recall hovering my mouse over something odd that must have set the porn train in motion. My sincere apologies to all and I hope y...

The town is about a 20min wal...

He confirmed it was so I took it home, the wife"s react...
