May I suggest that all the people on the road, head for Greens Lake for Christmas, I am sure there are many travellers who would be at loose ends for the 25th. Did you realise it is only a little over a month away (35 days) Just a thought.

Already booked in to go camping next weekend Would you believe our first overnight stay was at Greens Lake checking the camping out for our f...

This might look like a strange question but here goes. A friend of ours is looking for someone who may be able to bring a dog from Tassie to Melb. The dog is a small Border Collie. We will be able to provide a suitable cage to transport the dog. The owner is looking to get him as soon as possible. We will arrang...

Just thinking on the need to have the bedding on a single bed...read 2' 6" or 76cm., stay tucked under mattress on one side and not end up on the floor. My thoughts, would love some additions to this...Ikea sells...think it's called a bed topper and they make the bed with the btm sheet tucked und...

I have been staying with a very good friend who has just lost her husband for the past few days and will be hitting the road again at the weekend or early next week. It is amazing how much I am missing my new home. Miss Daisy has had new shoes put on and a good time at the day spa for motorhomes, I think she will be...

My wife takes Fosamax plus and a chance comment from her doctor sent us searching. Apparently you only take it for five years then go off it for a similar period with bone density checks. She has been on it for nearly thirteen years! I have added a couple of links on my message about it on www.rvsupertram...

we are an older couple trying to make the most of our travels with very limited funds. We purchased a camper trailer almost new condition, easy to tow and reasonable to erect. Upon using said rig we found a major problem with the height of the bed and for somebody with a very dodgy knee getting up to bed i...

We finally got our van last week. It's so exciting. Now, We're in the process of packing up our house, filling up our van and getting ready to hit the road.

Terry - tcp99 - arrived yesterday to spend some time with us - welcome Terry, good to see you!

Quite often, we arrive at a campsite only to see all the good spots taken. Greg, my mate in Texas, sent a link to a video of practical ways of maximizing your chances of securing the best spot.

We have a 2006 Jayco Destiny Pop Top Caravan with a combined shower/toilet and double bed. We have been very happy with it but have increasingly found the L shaped dining seating to be uncomfortable for relaxing on. We have considered putting in a cafe style dining set up with a Tri Fold Table but we thin...
