Just got our copy of Boiling Billy's Camping Guide to Australia. We already have Camps 6. Had a bit of a look through, and it looks great, very detailed information and directions.

Wondering if someone can tell me if the road is bitumen from Sandstone to Meekatharra? I know it is if you go via Mt Magnet but not sure if you take the direct route. I've been told all the rest from Kalgoorlie to Meekatharra is bitumen.

Lets face it; we Grey Nomads lead a purpose-less non-productive life. We just slowly wonder around from town to town, looking but not seeing much due to our poor eyesight. In general terms we either receive Centre Link benefits (costing the tax payer) or if self-funded through the superannuatio...

We've been on the road now for just on 18 months, and do a bit of house sitting along the way to mix up our travels, get a feel for a particular area and also it prevents cabin fever being in the van 24/7! I'm guessing we've been pretty "lucky" up to this point, as it seems we've managed, (without r...

So... Was reading the thread about high charges in some camp grounds and got me thinking... ( I know, it hurts... I try not to do it too often!)
