Just spent a great 12 days out at Greens Lake. So good to meet new grey nomads there for the first time. Thank you to The Kiwis for some wonderful meals on quite a few occasions. Even though I was unwell most of the time out there I did manage to have a little taste and was able to enjoy the company anyway. Mad...

Hi Guys, Looking at buying a new fridge due to an expanding family and a mate suggested the Primus Mammoth 65 dual zone (wife wants to take icecreams for the little ones).

We are settling in for summer at Rye, it's a beautiful privilege to be able to stay on family property down here, BUT, even though the neighbours have gone out of their way to greet us, we are missing "Happy Hour" chats.... Wondering if there are any other GNs in the vicinity now or over summer...

Preservation Bay is next to Penguin between Devonport and Burnie and the site is on the Eastern side of the Penguin Surf Club. It seems that we are camped on what may have been the Club grounds, the area is covered with grass and there are some shade trees all overlooking Bass Straight. There are no facil...

Did any-one else see the Blonde Wombat on Totally Wild this afternoon ? Very cute, but the baby that belonged to the other one was even cuter. Georgeous little thing about a foot long. Cheers, Sheba.
