Sheba has reported in one of the sub forums (I digress, I think) that her WHEELS and TYRES have been taken off and replaced by someone - with inferior ones to what she had on!! A tip - get an engraver and engrave your licence number on EVERYTHING - portable fridge, generator, tool boxes, wheels (we had li...

We are looking at blanking out the big windows in the bus, and getting RV windows fitted. Prices here for small windows, (many with storage damage) are unreal, so we are turning to the ever-reliable GN brains-trust. Online is better, because we are still in Tassie. Cheers al!

The roundest knight at king Arthur's round table was?---Sir Cumference, he acquired his size from too much Pi. No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery. A dog gave birth to puppies near the road and was cited for littering. Don't join dangerous cults, practice safe sects. ...

You have to be old enough to remember Abbott and Costello, and too old to REALLY understand computers, to fully appreciate this. For those of us who sometimes get flustered by our computers, please read on... If Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were alive today, their infamous sketch, 'Who's on First?' mi...

Free camp spot on the Lassiters Highway Turn off the Stuart Highway and head towards Uluru. This spot is about 100km in on the left. Plenty of shade and plenty of room. Just one picnic table and there are plenty of bins scattered around.

Well my shakedown trip started out ok, but it was pretty darn hot. I left Canberra on Sunday 9th and headed north through Yass, Cowra then overnight in Gooloogong where the pub was a welcome relief. Then the next day saw me going up through Canowindra, Molong, Wellington, Gulgong, Coolah and into...

I am having a big clean out and tried selling some really good things that I haven't used for ages and don't see myself using again but with no luck due my my base camp location. People, including family and some friends seem to think I live in upper timbuck too or somewhere like that. Now with that in mind I...

The following text message appeared on a man's iPhone from his next-door neighbour: "I've been riddled with guilt and I have to confess. I have been tapping your wife, day and night, when you're not around. In fact, more than you. I'm not getting any at home, but that's no excuse. I can no longer li...

Well - being a child of the 50's and 60's and growing up in a time when skin care consisted of the sun, baby oil and coconut oil, I guess I was destined at some time down the track, to face the results of those years in the Queensland sun! I had a couple of BCCs off recently and there was one on my nose that the dr...

There was a Scottish painter named Smokey MacGregor who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further. As it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually the local church decided to do a big restoration job on the o...

Fast approaching that age where it is time to get out and look about. Hopefully over the next couple of years I might run into some of you in my travels. Would love to do Tassie again, last time was with a group of cars, 12 in total and used caravan parks, next time will be different.

I went for a walk through the Gunbower Island forest this morning, and there were black birds there everywhere. To start with I thought they were crows but they were not, a little smaller, not squawking, and when they flew off they had white under their wings. They were really pretty when in flight. Jus...

In a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball, the Mystic delivered grave news: "There's no easy way to tell you this, so I'll just be blunt. Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year." Visibly shaken, Laura stared at the woman'...

Well here we are safely ensconced in the Bass Coast of Victoria. Our time in Devonport was spent catching up with other GN's and sightseeing. Wednesday we spent time meeting some lovely Nomads. (See Mongrel's earlier posts.) Thursday took us along the coast road to Stanley. We took heaps of ph...
