Ok then, Here I am again and still in Townsville so time for a quick instalment of my Northern Migration.

Well folks just received a call from our caravan dealer in a panic. We traded our Coromal in on a new Creative van in May, Creative have now gone into receivership. Our dealer is very good and has struck a deal with another supplier, Royal Flair don't know much about them??. Now we have to head up tomorro...

To help save the economy, the Government will announce next month that the Immigration Department will start deporting seniors (instead of illegals) in order to lower Social Security and Medicare costs. Older people are easier to catch and will not remember how to get back home.

I know there are couples that live in caravans but this is mostly for single people who live in their motor homes, do you travel every day, or do you spend say a couple weeks at one place? or more for that matter? also if you have a little car to tow behind your mh or do you use one of those hitch and go type thing...

So the week began last Tuesday morning with the car starting ( this becomes more relevant to my story as we go on) and so after a giving Deb and Danny a hug and a kiss goodbye Pete and I were away. First stop was 100 m done the road as the van mirror had fallen off!!! a quick fix and we were away again. After a unev...

You'd be surprised how much dust and 5h1t gets into the plug connectors. A good spray with an electrical connection cleaner does wonders for ensuring a good connection. CRC spray or WD40 also works a treat and keeps the pins nice and clean ready for the next hook-up. Mark

As you know, when emptying a fuel container you never seem to be able to get that last drop out, petrol is not too bad as you can leave the cap off in a clean area and let it evaporate, however diesel does not evaporate easily. So my question is, providing they are empty, but with the possibility a very small...

Hopefully this version will upload. This is the crew at Greens Lake over Easter.

A bloke picks up a girl in a dark section of the street. She is dressed in bright pink knee boots and net stockings under a leatherette skirt that covers nothing very much at all. He asks if she'd like to go to his apartment to have a look at his multi-million dollar art collection. Off they go. In his apart...

Anyone able to suggest the best way to get to Maleny from Toowoomba. I know you can turn north near Woodford, not sure how steep the road is. From memory, the road from Woodford is very steep, but have never towed anything into Maleny. Hopefully someone will be able to let me know if the road is too ste...

The standard Jayco FM antenna & radio / CD we have is less than wonderful - as SWMBO likes ABC FM in the mornings, looking to install a higher efficiency antenna and a better radio. All suggestions appreciated. Will putting an FM antenna on top of the TV antenna improve the FM reception ( yes I apprec...

I was hoping that there may be a easy way to find a list of State by State Show Ground Camping sites. Now I know that if one did exist, that it would be a variable list as there would be changes due to the Caravan Park owners bitching re low cost camping. But any clue would be great. Perhaps there is a thread on...

A handy idea for space saving in the wardrobe is with your hangers ,get the zip top lever of your beer cans or soft drink cans and put one lever on the first hanger ,hook it over the hook and then hook your next hanger on the can lever that is on the first hanger and keep going until you have enough,that way the...

Thanks to the kindness of a GN. I have an Aldi-powered mobile (no Aldi in WA, so he sent me the SIM card). Works a treat. Local calls 12 cents a minute. Call my wife in UK . . . 10 cents a minute! As they say, go figure. Cheers, Tony
