Aussie walks into a pub and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his watch for a moment.

He said get it replaced asap as it was out of round and destroying itself. $340 later we had the only suitable light...

In all the kms, and all the vans and travellers I see in the course of my work, I have not met another Grey Nomad on the road. I was sure I'd encounter fellow GN's out in the beyond, but I'm disappointed. For all the caravanners and happy campers I see on the road, I would have thought some of them would be G...

Had a tube made to connect the spare to a drive tyre. If it was low at all he could connect and get air from the spare. great when...
