we have had conflicting stories about free camping at Clairview. Can we stay overnight. Has anyone stayed recently. Would welcome your comments

After waiting many years, we are finally on the road! We bought 'Archie' recently and have literally just set out. Archie is a 1992 3.5L Diesel Turbo Mitsi Canter and, for us anyway, has everything we'll probably need (shower, toilet, generator, invertor, A/C etc etc), not that we know what everythi...

Does anyone know who would professionally install a solar panel to the roof of a MH Approx 3mts high. I will have the panel, just need to have it installed. Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat, Dandenong areas.

I am currently driving what is called a C Train. Prime mover with a b-double towing a third or C trailer. I collect harvested grain from the farmers property (properties) and take it to a grain handling facility about 40 kms away. I drive about 5 kms on the farmers tracks, about 30 to 40 kms on a graded dirt...

Now while Greens Lake may have its famous thong tree, while at Lake Ratzcastle Ole Grizzly and myself discovered a tree of a different type. I am guessing that the soil being different there makes for different trees. This one we can only assume is a good specimen of an MT Liquid Amber tree. It seemed...

Hi all, we will be in the Greens Lake area soon about the 5th of Dec to catch up with some friends. We will drop in and say hello around that time before we move onto Melb to catch up with kids. Brian and Cheryl

Well here we are at Melbourne airport, bags all checked in and just had a BIG bacon and egg brekky. The caravan and cruiser are both tucked up with friends, and pray that the fire season that is predicted will not be too severe. A BIG THANK YOU to all our nomad friends we have met on the forum and also in per...

Paddy took 2 stuffed dogs to the 'Antiques Roadshow'. "Ooh!" said the presenter, "This is a very rare set, produced by the celebrated Johns Brothers taxidermists who operated in London at the turn of last century. Do you have any idea what they would fetch if they were in good con...

A couple has a dog that snores. Annoyed because she can't sleep, the wife goes to the vet to see if he can help. The vet tells the woman to tie a ribbon around the dog's testicles and he will stop snoring. 'Yeah right!" she says. A few minutes after going to bed, the dog begins snoring, as usual. The wif...

Our plane was late leaving Melbourne, but we had a lovely smooth flight to Auckland. We made the decision to not sleep in but went to work with our daughter and put in a half day with her stamping and bagging fuel cells (destined for Europe). Her future father in law is the owner of the business. That done w...

OLD is when.... Scotch with 2 drops of water? A lady goes to the bar on a cruise ship and orders a Scotch with two drops of water. As the bartender gives her the drink she says 'I'm on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday and it's today.' The bartender says 'Well, since it's your birthday, I'l...

I'VE BEEN BANNED FROM WOOLWORTHS Yesterday I was at my local Woolworths store buying a large bag of My Dog dog food for my loyal pet and was in the checkout queue when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had an elephant? So, since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her th...

Greens Lake is certainly unusual in that there is free camping with no time limit.I am surprised that there are not 100s of campers there permanently.( maybe there will be now that members are calling for all to come to Greens Lake for Xmas.) What would happen if 100s of Grey Nomads turned up ? Would be i...
