Yes, we're finally here. Pity it's the weekend. It was a bit hard to get spot not too close to others, and there are power boats zooming around. Nevertheless, we're here, and it was sunny and warmish until 2 minutes ago. The sun's gone behind a cloud. We'll still be here tomorrow as we need to do some wash...

Yes, yes, I know it's early but I'm thinking that I'll head there on Thursday. Would love to know who to look out for - so if you're there please tell me whether there are lots of other vans there and how to recognise you.

Hi All, A couple of us are getting together possibly Friday or Saturday night for a meal while the genealogy muster is on. PM me if you would like to come along.

I keep hearing people tell me they would not have a portable (Briefcase Type) Solar Panel Or Satelite Dish for that matter as "They Get Stolen" This was mentioned to me about three times over the weekend at a C.P. When the discussion turned to Solar Panels. I wonder how many are Stolen fro...

As mentioned in a previous post I have arrived in Millmerran a few days early and settled in to my new area (Green Singles) the van has been fixed up again and I am awaiting an influx of singles. At the moment I have 4 spaces on one side and 3 on the other. I have erected my annex, table and the TV antenna but tha...

As we sit in our caravan and it rains outside, I decided to log on and join the many others who have logged on right now. I wonder, does the number of people logged on or visiting as members, go up when the weather is inclement? I've read, I've napped, I've checked my emails and I will do some stitching after...

According to my grandsons, who go to school in Boonah, you cannot move in the showgrounds, Coronation Park, the High School oval, and the Golf Club - shops are geared up to stay open all weekend, pubs well stocked, and looks like the weather is going to be kind, apart from a bit of a wind tomorrow.

The kitchen has a sliding benchtop and can be extended to the sides with add on hatches. The kitchen area is separated from the bed area with flyscreen and doesn't feel claustrophobic.

Hi Everyone

My partner and I have just brought our new van with a delivery date for April of next year!!!! We went for the Royal Flair Promenade in the end. After many years of looking including a trip to the States to look at what they have to offer I can't believe we ended up buying from a dealer n...

Looking at buying a caravan for the great escape. Can almost afford a new one at a push....or do we go for a 2nd hand one? Any advantages over one or other? The new ones sure look pretty!!! :) And if there were problems while many miles away how does one get things fixed if it covered by warranty?? Buffy

Leave the lemon peel on a piece of plastic wrap in the sun. A few drops of the lemon oil will come out of the peel. Use these drops of lemon oil on your cobwebbing broom and the spiders will not come back for ages. That will make me feel even better too. -- Edited by neilnruth on Thursday 11th of October 2012 05...

Stopped off at a rest area last night just west of Glen Innes and it was a little cold overnight. Woke up to find the outside temp 4 degrees. Headed off for b/fast at Macca's only to find it snowing as we went over the range and into town. Looks like its snowed most of the night and as we sit here sipping our cof...
