Hi Everyone, Searched around looking for info but found nne, so... We are awaiting our new rig and I am trying to work out a good convenient spot to mount the inverter I have.

Hi Everyone I am relatively new to Grey Nomads. I have recently retired and am divorced. So I am on my own. I am just over 60 years of age.

Just wondered if anyone was up there? would like to try and be with other grey nomads on this first run if possible. Cheers Di -- Edited by didi on Thursday 5th of Februar...

Hi all, just wanted to introduce myself and the missus, before we pick all the best bits out of you to get our old bus up to speed. Although we did the "Big Loop" back in '96 in a little wind up pop top van, we recently purchased an old 1989 Mitsubishi Rosa bus. It has already been converted and has...

Staying tonight at the Coopernook hotel, has an area out the back. Just need to support the pub a little and you are welcome to stay. We decided to eat dinner in the pub and the meals were great. You can even get a good pizza and take it back to your van if that suits you better. There are five lots staying he...

Howdy and thanks for the ad'. We're newbies with a van, but we arrived here after a tent (tried to blow away with us in it on the Coorong) and then floated away in the 2011 floods. Then another tent and then a camper trailer. We got in at the lower end of the 2nd hand market with a '91 Windsor. All it says is t...

hi I drive a Ivceo Daily 50C70 towing a 29ft 5th Wheeler with a travel height of 3.5 meters. I was wondering what the road conditions are on C425 and is it suitable for my rig or is there a web site out there to check. Davo53

Hi, my son was given an ipad due to the fact he has a severe disability. It was accidentally dropped yesterday and now the ipad air will not launch any apps or go to the home page or to settings. I could take it to the local apple store but I am a bit cynical and fear they will say, please come up with another $8o...

Hi Everyone. I am not sure if this the right forum however I am hoping that some of you Grey Nomads may also be (or have been) involved in Over 55's Living. I am a single retired gent who is looking at buying into an Over 55's. I am fit and well and 60yo. Depending where I buy, I may also be purchasing a small MH s...

This was the first day that I have travelled without a destination planned, I have always had a Camps reference to get to. This was the first time that I have used a GPS to guide me on my way, it was good but took me through Benella instead of taking me the truck route that I used last time which was quicker an...
