How, After the last three weeks of going practically non stop I had some lovely soup at the Warrnambool RSL for lunch. I felt myself getting rather tired so came back to the Den as all my get up and go, got up and went. Yep you guessed it, crashed big time. Three hours later still feeling like that go hasn't c...

Can't believe some people can be so gullible. I was just reading online about a hoax where a fake website add was telling people that iOS8 now has wave technology and that you can recharge your Iphone by placing it in a microwave oven on high for a short length of time. Some people actually did it and destr...

Hello gang. Just came back from a terrific trip to Winton and places between. Must say the thing that bugs me most when travelling is the standard of showering facilities at caravan parks. Not going to bag any, but I HATE stepping from under the shower into foot deep water where I am supposed to get dress...

Hi guys I've got my van parked in its spot at home for a while now. I opened it up over the weekend to find ants everywhere. How the hell do these little buggers get in, I haven't got the legs down so they must be coming up the jockey wheel or the tyres. Has anyone got any ideas on how to keep them out. The annoyi...

Have wangled 10 days off from the daily grind and Linda and I are heading up to Lightning Ridge and Bourke from Sydney. Been up and down and around the coast, time to see a bit of the red stuff.. Not retired yet (sigh) another few years yet. Our rig is a diesel Mazda CX5, towing a Coromal Excel 511 pop top. Su...

The cat thought for a minute and then said 'All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would like a real fluffy pillow to sleep on.' God sai...

Johnny's answer was: "Our house is very small miss. Me, my mother and my father, we sleep on the same bed. Every night my fathe...

Hi out there everyone. In an Adelaide Caravan Park at the moment with the awning out, and the full annexe up. to say the least it is blowing a gale. Would be interested to know the thoughts of others as to how much wind they have left their annexes and awnings erected in with out doing any damage. Cheers Da...

Another one !! All boats , mammals/ birds and jetty (teak) are hand crafted. Frame is pine and the pylons are driftwood. Ocean is acrylic. When I sailed the Pacific Islands years ago, I saw many quaint rickety food places similar to this with no actual building codes or laws. I make these purely fr...
