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...

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

Bummer. I got the fridge fixed but he gave me a gas non compliance certificate because there wasn't a 40mm internal hole in the floor behind the fridge as the bottom vent was 25mm above floor level.
