Not sure where to post, but I would like to take out the rocking Chairs and replace with a settee that pulls out into a bed? Any suggestions ? I'm in Melbourne.

If you look at Camps6 and then open WikiCamps both on Kandanga you would think that they are discussing totally different places. Camps advise self contained vehicles only for 24hours, big rigs and dogs whilst Wiki tells us 72hours, toilets, drinking water 2WD access and all vehicles allowed, phon...

We are in the relatively newly opened RV 24hr stop in Kambalda WA. An area in walking distance to supermarket, and shops. Not a huge area, but possibly at least a dozen, parked sensibly could fit in here. There is a dump point, and you can get a hot shower at the Recreation Centre, just next door for $2!...

My Dometic fridge, model RM 4211, when running on gas in a breeze, the pilot flame will blow out if the vent is facing into the breeze. I'm not talking about Gale force winds, just any light breeze will shut the flame down. It will then ignite itself until the next puff of wind. Before you all spring to you...

There I was sitting at the bar staring at my drink when a large, trouble-making biker steps up next to me, grabs my drink and gulps it down in one swig. Well, whatcha' gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly, as I burst into tears. "Come on, man," the biker says, "I didn'...

Remember chip heaters? Heating up the water with a fire inside like some sort of heaving, puffing dragon? Bathes were something of an adventure in those days. As a little kid, I'd want the "other end" where the hot water wouldn't spit all over me when the thing was boiling. -- Edited by Rip a...

Humour from the Brits - non P.C. I got invited to a party and was told to dress to kill. Apparently a turban, beard and a backpack wasn't what they had in mind Seven wheelchair athletes have been banned from the Paralympics after they tested positive for WD40. ITS A BOY," I shouted, "A BOY,...
