So I went to leave Greens the other day. There was a 'clonk,clonk' sound from a caravan wheel. It wasn't pretty. i figured the side it was coming from and did a u-bolt back to camp, cos I had no idea what to do!!!! And figured some lovely person would help. thanks to some GN's, one who I didn't even know, had m...

A warning to people planning to travel north for the winter in WA... quite a few roads are closed along the west Pilbara and Gascoyne region. Roads into national parks have been closed too, but aren't listed here. Check before you leave. https://www.mainroads.wa.gov.au/pages/alerts.aspx W...

Most of us are using a G P S now days and have our address at home saved as ''Home'' Crooks are stealing your GPS and know (obviously) that you are not home.... To save your home being burgled make your home address as any number......instead of the street number where you really live. Cheers

Hi to all of you full time GNs. How did you do it? Did you sell up? What did you do with items you kept etc etc? What, if any, are the downsides?We would like to go full time but my lovely better half has many things she would like to hold on to and we were discussing the ways and means to do it to keep us both happy....

We have just broken the above mentioned part and before we start repairing it, I thought I would put my problem out there. Anyone any ideas where this part can be purchaseD from. It's a nylon swivel mount at the back of the TV. It's part of a wall mounted bracket for a LCD TV. It allows you to adjust the scree...

We arrived at Yarrawonga and did some shopping had coffee and a pie. we then found a free camp at Greenbank, where we stayed for 3 days, this was a lovely free camp with brand new toilets, heaps of space. Also a lovely sandy beach. Today we drove 40 KLS to Cobram, the dump was at the show grounds where we fi...

Just wondering if anyone uses a dehumidifier. If so, what sort and approximate cost. Im thinking of someway of reducing condensation while we are camped in cold weather. Have tried leaving a window open but its soon going to be just too cold.

Hi, I use a 240v to 12v transformer to run my 12v lights, water pump, toilet, winegaurd etc. My question is, is this okay or should I use a step down fro m 24v to 12v. My coach has 4 X 175 panels (24v), 2 X 12v - 210 amp AGM's and 1000W inverter. The only 240v appliances we run are TV, microwave, domestic fridge...

I have a Garmin Nuvi 1450LMT GPS with lifetime maps. I had used it a number of times and downloaded the Lifetime Maps updates previously, however recently I had decided to update them again, however the unit failed to upload them, and worse deleted all my maps and I could not reload them. My 12 months wa...

Gday... Like most, I love travelling all over this country. So many of us love to get out of Victoria to head to the inviting northern climes. These couple of photos give an indication that there are some nice places in Victoria as well. Cheers - John -- Edited by rockylizard on Thursday 27th of March 201...

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a place to leave a largish caravan somewhere near Perth while the owners are in England for a while. Our friends are currently in Victoria and will be heading west to W.A., and then will be travelling to London to visit family. Any suggestions would be appreciated, than...

I want to have some music and local radio in our van and wonder what you folk out there did to solve this situation. I guess the simplest solution would be to get a car radio/cd unit fitted as this would be 12 volt. The other option is a small portable bedroom type stereo which would not take up much room, can...

We are here in Tamworth until Tuesday, staying at the Austin Caravan Park. If there are any GNs interested in meeting up let me know or pm me.
