A friend wants to rent my caravan (which has not been unregistered for 3 years) to use as a stationery spare room at his place for a couple visiting from oversees for 3 months.

After staying at Aysons Reserve on a couple of occasions we are finally heading to Greens on Sunday. Can anyone tell what the policy is for dealing with grey water?

A big step forward this week - I'll be taking the Hino down to Brisbane for its conversion to a motorhome. Should take 4-6 weeks, but I'll still have to wait a while until I reach the magic age in September before walking through the playground's gate. Will have to keep looking through the fence palings u...

I've seen a lot bit of Negativity about Tasmania of late, so I just wanted to say.. that I've never been treated Negatively in Tasmania and have felt most welcome each time I go down there... you have to be aware that there are some places that don't like Free Campers - Same goes here on the Main Land as well...

I'm slowly removing the pelmets and fawn coloured curtains. they were dull... In my opinion... Here is is a contrast p...
