It's one thing to see the result of the fires on TV, and another to go to the farms , etc and meet the people. Now the job is finished there, we are going to N/W Qld; to help people eff...

Do not think that you will be reunited with your lost pet in NSW because the animal is microchipped. I think it is very wrong that NSW council pounds can ignore that your pet's ownership details may be recorded on a different register other than the NSW companion animal database.

These couple of shots were taken from Cliff Head Camp site yesterday, being right on the Coast, this camp site would not be a very nice place to be when the coming Storm hit.... Sorry the pictures haven't turned out to clear, it's because the light was fading very quickly. K.J.

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...

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....
