We had blowout on our caravan on the Cloncurry Normanton Development road on the 22nd of June. We had trouble lifting the caravan axle high enough and a kind couple stopped to help out. Sunil took very ill and this couple helped Shashi to pack up after the wheel was changed as Sunil was no good to any one...

Being business owners doesn't give us lots of time for trips away, and because our business is catering we usually have to work weekends, and we do office work through the week. Last weekend was one of those weekends when we had nothing on, and we decided to Take off to the Melbourne 4x4 show from Adela...

We are on the north bank to the west of the bridges. Not as busy as the camps on the south banks. Dump point & fresh water just inside the showgrounds.( No ca...

Hi Everyone This is my first time on the forum. My husband and I are from SA and we are starting to plan our 6 month caravan trip and was wondering what time/month is the best to head up through the centre and then over to WA. Also I would be most grateful if anyone can tell me places that we 'must visit' on our...

Impressed with the staff, was not kept waiting, only took 1.5 hours and after I had had a coffee and breakfast across the road, went for a walk, I was offered shelter from the cold wind in their morning tea room. All done and dusted, pleased with wh...

We are presently staying in a caravan park outside of Mackay. After paying $50 a night at some parks we decided to look for a cheapie for a few nights.

Hi, I brought a voucher for the WALLAGA LAKE HOLIDAY PARK in NSW. It expires 18th December (probably earlier as it is not valid in school holidays.) I was stuck at home for ages with hail damage and have now run out of time for using it. I don't like to see it go to waste. It is for 10 days or 2x5 days for a power...

Just saying Hi as new to the Forum. We have returned to caravanning after 25 years, back then we had a Viscount 14' poptop and travelled much of the Eastern states when the kids were young, plus each winter out in the opal fields of Yowah and Quilpie areas for fossicking. Retired now, we have just bought...

Hi, I'm just wondering if anybody else has had the problem of any Dometic windows falling out while travelling? My husband closed the window before we left Katherine, and I checked it, as I didn't realise that he'd locked it. It was fully locked. We reached Roper River, only to find that our toilet wind...
