We are planning to travel from Huskisson to Canberra early next year. We are wondering which route to take that will place the least amount of stress on the vehicle for the climb up the range. We aren't seeking the shortest route just the least stressful. Any suggestions?

Hi every one. I'm the new boy on the block as I just joined your forum yesterday, although I've been on the road for the last 40 years. (We've been running 4WD safaris all over Aust). Now has anyone got any comments on the service of these Toxic Tech phones that use only one satellite? We've been using Irid...

I thought I would post some pics of the Blue Lake in Mount Gambier. This time of the year it puts on a magnificent show. Also some pics of the beach areas around the Mount. Have not done a lot as I am 'home" to assist my Mum in her transistion from low care to high care. This has been a full time committmen...

Finally. After much swearing and consternation I stumbled on a way that actually works every time - even for me - and you don't need a 200 IQ to understand it. Watch this and be relieved! http://youtu.be/CyjHBQ3mHzc

I was looking at Facebook today and saw a post from a friend sharing an open letter to All Australians from a Vet in Oakey Qld. I know from posts by forumites that the Bush is in a bad way. If the bush which is the foundation of all our lives here in Australia is so bad God help us. Reading this open letter I am ap...

Gday... I had the distinct pleasure of meeting a couple of "young" gypsies today - with the caravan all set up. I really could NOT go past without interrupting them, introducing myself and having a look at their 'home'. Thankfully, they allowed me to gush about their abode. They are long-s...

One of my daughters tells that there are moves afoot to stop the tradition of kids sitting on Santa's knee to tell Santa what they want and also for a photo. It's not to do with religion or fairytales but just because "they don't want their kids to sit on some dirty old mans' lap" I commented t...

I spotted this photo of a replica village from the 19th century at Wilberforce in NSW. I didn't know the village existed, but it's really beautiful. Anyone been there?

Would like to advise all travellers on the Bruce H'way, the council has just erected NO CAMPING signs all along the road both sides. They intend to book people if they camp up. We had a couple camp in our campground on Wednesday and told us, so we went for a cruise and checked it out, before I posted anythin...
