Being new to this subject I need advice from you old hands - have just got a small caravan - jayco penguin - and it is set up for panel use but no panel. Have asked many dealers and have been recommended from 80 watt upwards. Being a pensioner the cost is of importance. What size would be the most sensible fo...

Happy Wanderer's post below made me realise unless I explained why I put this here I would end up with everyone misunderstanding my intention. HW has it right .... I find the top half of the photo abhorrent and the lower half where I try to keep my head. Thanks HW for making me realise others would not get m...

He had the most beautiful garden full of huge red tomatoes. the woman asked the gentleman, "What do you do to get your tomatoes so r...

Getting warm now and warmer over the weekend with 40's expected all this week coming. Might just have to do my late night dip tonight, well it hard work here you know. I finally decided to crawl out of the cot around 9.00am and thought, mmmm, what will I do today, I know, have breakfast and finish off what...

Do the Bunnings blue drinking water hoses taint your water. I have been told by some yes they do but by others no. They are a good $10 cheaper than the caravan shop ones and as we need two I could save over $20. We do have a water filter in the van and I also thought I would probably carry spring water for the ket...
