Hi All, I m just wondering what to do about mobile Internet .

I just thought I would change the apperence of my old step,it had dirty old carpet on the sides,so with a bit of imagination this is how it turned out.

Tavern on Turton - delicious Garfish and Squid meal for $22. A new tavern, play area for kids, large dining area, and a very short walk from the CP Bakery at Turton - just as you get to the built up area. Bread cobs, buns, and cakes baked daily, open 7 days, has petrol and diesel. Great little CP beside the je...

Just saw a headline in a WA newspaper describing a 66 year old driver as "elderly". Wot? I'm 68 and I certainly don't think of myself as elderly. They say the definition of old is anyone 10 years older than you are. Anyway, I often refer to myself as an old bloke, and am quite happy with being one...

A perennial source of questions on this and other forums is the topic of solar and batteries. Given the complexity of the the subject and the confusing issues involved this is not surprising. Exploroz has this excellent article prepared by Colyn Rivers on their website that answers a lot of question...

OK, wife has a Kindle with a keyboard, which she loves. I see much cheaper Kindles for sale, with no keyboards. How do you order books on these? Does a "virtual" keyboard come up on the screen? I am trying to avoid the process of downloading to computer and then transferring to Kindle. The few...

Well I got my battery 5 days ago and tried charging it up .No luck ,I get the voltage up to 13.10 V ,then in about 6 hrs it drops to 11.6 V. So it is less then 40% full. Funny , I knew that I would have some problems with that company I bought the battery from. In hindside I should have asked for my money back , but I...

Yesterday i had to go to Brisbane from Gladstone, and noticed the Granite Creek Rest area at Lowermead between Miriam Vale and Gin Gin on Bruce highway is still closed due to the floods.

Any solo's travelling to or from Perth via the Great Easter Highway wanting a reasonably priced campsite for the night may be interested in this, small rigs only, eg; camper trailers, campervans and small motorhomes under 6 metres long (but check with them first about the motorhome, let them know it...

I've just past the magic age of 60 and with my partner, Di (who has yet to reach that magnificent milestone), we started thinking about what to do now that the kids have left and the house is too big and there's heaps of places we haven't been and heaps of things we haven't done. Our minds turned towards tra...

Can anyone give me some info on the Wirrina Cove Caravan Park i.e. cost, amenities anything in general please?

The remants of Tropical Cyclone Rusty crossed the country to SE WA, refreshing this usually dry and dusty region of Australia to a glowing "forest". The foliage shines in the morning sun, and muddy puddles still reflect the glistening foliage of every shade of green overhead. A carpet o...

Can anyone recommend a model?? How tricky they are to wire up to the van. Bought the one advertised at ALDI a month or so again but looks like it is going to be too tricky to wire in. How much (roughly) would one expect to pay for a reversing camera? Also...is there a camera that can be mounted on the caravan a...
