Pulled in here today to find the annual camp draft happening. So a few are in the "no generator" end - the rest on the nicely cut grass across the road - about 50 travellers. Still a great spot. Lots who are driving in are turning around and driving away.

It's very simple, and the down-sized Pics. get put straight into their own Folder when done. The best size to use, is 640. It's also Free, and is suitable for Windows 8 as well as the others. h...

I went to the caravan place today to get prices for getting a solar panel fixed to the well on the top of cabin of Myrtle. Wanted at least 120w, and maybe up to 200, but after measuring he said only just get 100w and that's right to the outside measurements. All up will be close to $1000, with just the bits and...

In case my question about Sikaflex (as mentioned in Vic's thread about his water tank) gets lost there, I figured I'd better start a new thread. My porta potti lid/seat has a small crack in the plastic rim. It doesn't affect the toilet seat when the lid is raised, but the lid also acts as an extra seat when...

From the timber country around Manjimup/Pemberton to Augusta and up to Perth. The weather has been a bit cool and damp but the country is fascinating and makes it all worthwhile!

To anyone interested. This is just an update to some recent posts regarding removal of wheel nuts on vehicles. The Power Enforcer. The Parent company in Holland gave my details to the Australian distributors and they have advised me that the price of the tool is $55 + $15 postage and handling within...

Near my auxillary battery, I have a ciggy type plug for 12V accessories and also another which I think may be for a TV. However the socket has two oblong pins, one horizontal oblong one at the top and a vertical oblong one underneath it. Although not touching, the two oblong pin holes are in a "T&...

I have just spent over half an hour talking with the owners of the Corop Store. They started to question me when I said I had just come from there after going out to catch up with a couple of grey nomads (pricey43). They were able to tell me exactly what is going on out there as they want it to stay open just as m...
