Hi Everyone, in the grey nomad times it says we can use vinegar in the toilet. Is this to clean it on the outside with vinegar and water or to use vinegar instead of chemicals for the break down process? thanks.

And no paperwork at all. Today I went to Kmart and bought a Telstra T96 mobile ($49), which has the rural Blue T...

A lovely spot - walk distance to town - old but spotlessly clean amenities - $25 per night powered. Lots of level sites, and shade trees.

I love some time to myself and I guess that is a big part of why I love being retired and the ability to travel around in our own recreational vehicle is a huge bonus. Most mornings I am up with the birds in that pre dawn time. I generally treasure this time. I always have, even when the kids were little. I love...
