Poor hubby, Neil, celebrates his birthday today minus me. At least he would have started the day with briche and kiwi-as and he did get a cake from me before I left (to look after his 93 yr old mum!)

This is our updated rig. The 5th wheeler is now towed with an Iveco Daily which gives us more room to carry stuff on our round Australia trip next year. It was originally towed with an Isuzu D-Max which was great but no room for extras. We are getting good economy with the Iveco as well. -- Edited by poppy33...

This is a Top Tourist Park so you get the 10% discount if you are a member but you also get 3c/lt off the petrol if you stay here - park is behind the service station. It's on the highway but there's a good sound barrier between the sites and highway. Nice clean facilities. $29/night less discount.

When you are full time caravaning where do most of you stay during the hot summer months expensive on the coast and Free camping would be very crowded during the holiday's not to mention bush fires and the little people (kids) the noisy one's.... now you know why my name is ( Woosy )

There's a dump point, and ignore the 48 hour stay, council is happy for visitors to stay as long as they like, but it would be nice if the visitors spent money in the town, which is...

A Dog's Purpose? (from a 6-year-old). Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he w...
