Is there anyone out there who has the same problem as I do? (now let's not get too nasty!). I have a great house (home) in a nice area (North Lakes, Qld) which is about as van unfriendly as you can get. The old Avan Rhys H/T was bad enough, but the new van is even bigger! I have no back yard access, and it is again...

As some of you may know, I recently had need of an ambulance to extract me from Wuruma Dam. I had a burst appendix. Many thanks to Julie & Billeeeeeee. They called the ambulance and probably saved my life. In addition Julie accompanied me in the ambulance and ensured I had everything I needed....

Since we retired 3 years ago & started travelling for a total of around 6 months per year we didn't realize just how much alcohol retirees were drinking. We enjoy a glass or 2 of wine just like anyone else but we're concerned about others who overdo things. It could be a ''boredom thing'' but we've n...

Took a walk today through the gorge what a beautiful place. -- Edited by copper1 on Sunday 12th of Jul...
