Wanna see something really really really stunning? A mate sent this link this morning to a video of the full moon rising in Wellington NZ. Trust me, this is something really special, and if you're not bowled over, I'll be very surprised. Click here for the video.

Any comments on Bowen Horseshoe Bay Resort/Caravan Park.

Why do supermarkets make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front? Why do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke? Why do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters?...

Hi all, can anyone tell me why my tv works OK for about 10 minutes and then the screen turns off for a minute before coming back on for a few minutes and then turning off again. I am really tired of watching the first ten minutes of Warrior over and over!! PS the tv is an AWA LCD about 2 years old with built in DV...

I just got a rough quote for our Tassy trip and it worked out at $1158, just to get us and the van over there! That's not including a return trip. I couldn't believe it. Does that sound right to you guys? I'm in shock, I didn't believe it would cost so much. We are now considering trying to get cheap flights an...

Afternoon all. We are awaiting delivery of our new van, which has a Truma Avanti aircon. unit. The supplier has told us that a Honda 2.0kva inverter generator would suffice to operate it, providing no other 240 volt appliance is being used. This would be fine with us, as a 3kva is too big and bulky for our...

HI I left a couple of things behind in Townsville for my friends to sell but have decided I was a bit short sighted and now want to keep them. My friends can get them to you in the T'Ville area if somebody will bring them up for me. It is just a canvas camping cupboard and a bbq plate cooking set. If you can help c...

Hitman Two old friends were just about to tee off at the first hole of their local golf course when a guy carrying a golf bag called out to them, "Do you mind if I join you? My partner didn't turn up". Sure, they said, youre welcome. So they started playing and enjoyed the game and the compan...

During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty his roommate was.She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.... Over the course of the evening, while...

This is just for anyone heading for northern Qld (or already there). In addition to the famed Comfort Stop the good people of Home Hill have opened up their showground. And a very nice place to stop it is. It costs $10 a night for a powered site - the same for unpowered (they like to keep things simple) so...

Do you ever get used to it or do you use UHT? Just curious what others use.

Hi all, I have a 90Lt Dometic 3 way fridge fitted to my Avan and has been working well until two days ago when for some reason it just stopped working on 240v. I have checked the main power supply and auto cut of board and all is ok, power is getting in to the Avan so that's not it. Gas and 12v works fine. I am usin...

Two medical students were walking along the street when they saw an old man walking with his legs spread apart. He was stiff-legged and walking slowly. One student said to his friend: "I'm sure that poor old man has Peltry Syndrome. Those people walk just like that." The other student say...
