Yay!!! We were supposed to leave on our trip some time ago, but the passing of both our mothers within 4 months of each other, followed by my hospital visits culminating in the removal of the gall bladder sort of delayed us somewhat. Now we are going,(well in 2 days time).Heading for Maryborough VIC for...

G'Day, like many other GNs, we prefer to buy Australian. With toothpaste there has only been one 'normal' type of toothpaste (white, mint flavoured) that is locally made - Cedel brand. It sells for about $2 and is usually hidden in the supermarket behind a post down the bottom. The good old brands like...

I had a lovely long day trip on Wednesday to check out camp sites in the Scenic Rim. So I thought I'd share what I found. I was particularly looking at free or cheap camps. I didn't check the CAW book for these, but found them in several other places. http://scenicrimescapes.com.au/ http://truecampin...

Can not play by myself in here it is no fun doing the stirring without anyone. I'm going to take my bat and ball back to the loungeroom...
