After having a look at Goldsborough National Park I carried on south with a view to getting to a free camp south of Tully but the signpost for Mission Beach caught my eye and I remembered hearing so much about it as the jumping off ground to Dunk Island. Unfortunately Dunk was ruined by a cyclone and the re...

Hi, I am wondering if anyone has experience with large 5th wheelers. Since being to the Brisbane show I find that my wife and I are talking a lot about this option. We have looked at the Cruiser brand from Gympie (imported from the US) which is 10m long plus the tug and 4m high. We also like the Spinifex ca...

An old prospector shuffled into the town of El Indio, Texas leading a tired old mule. The old man headed straight for the only saloon in town, to clear his parched throat. He walked up to the saloon and tied his old mule to the hitch rail. As he stood there, brushing some of the dust from his face and clothe...

Charlie is heading down and was wondering if anyone else might be about that time? Tess on behalf of Cheryl.

Charlie and I are travelling together around Kakadu, at Cooinda at the moment and would love to catch up with any Nomads who happen to be around. We are having a wonderful time.

Sometimes it really is a bit annoying when you make a comment on topics and you get no acknowledgement of your thoughts at all, mainly from the person who made the OP, there are some great people here who always make a point of letting you know that they have read what you have written, but there are others...

Hi campers My DH and I are leaving central Victoria (home) for Qld at the weekend. We are planning to 'stroll' there. But I was wondering if there are many of 'us' already on the road. We will be travelling 'inland'. Do you think we would have to book up ahead for a CP or take pot-luck, as we usually do? We...

Been in a free camp for a couple of nights, very busy with travellers. The first night in here we had four muso's set up & entertained all the campers for a couple of hours. They had been to the Bundy festival. This morning even saw vanners arriving at 9.00am & setting up camp. JC.

Hi all, because you were all very helpful with my last question here is another one for your minds to get around. I am getting a bit of water in the front driver side under the steering wheel area, it seems to be coming in under the dash and getting in under the carpet. I have put a towel in going up under the da...

What is the idea behind the underlined and coloured words please ? I for one, find them very annoying. Cheers, Sheba.

Magnificent! We thought we had seen it all at Uluru and Kings Canyon but what a beaut sight it was at the Gosse Bluff, Redbank gorge, Ormiston and Serpentine gorges. We eventually found the Roma Gorge track which is well worth the visit, if you have a decent 4 x 4 vehicle. It takes 30min to drive the 8km...

A little boy was sitting on the footpath with a bottle of Turpentine. He was shaking it up and watching all the bubbles. A Priest came along and asked the little boy what he had. The little boy said, 'This is the most powerful liquid in the world; it's called Turpentine.' The Priest said, 'No, the most pow...

Thanks to everyone that looked and sent me mail. Unfortunately my last chance to fill beds has failed and beautiful Fidutia is now on the market. The add has been placed, so in fairness to buyers I shall stay in Strasbourg -- Edited by Aussiebargeman on Tuesday 12th of June 2012 03:20:23 AM

A DEA officer stopped at a ranch in Texas , and talked with an old rancher. He told the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The rancher said, "Okay , but don't go in that field over there.....", as he pointed out the location. The DEA of...

These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place. ATTORNEY: What was the first thing your h...
