Stopped in at Pussy Cat Flats at the Pine Creek Turf Club NT for a few days last week & really enjoyed ourselves, $8.50 pp-pn powered site. It was well kept & clean with level turf sites. There is only one meeting annually but I think they only accommodate vans in the dry season. The manager, Renn...

Some advice would be very much appreciated.While travelling over Dorrigo Mountain one of my fog lights came very loose, which I have since had tightened.The problem is though, now Im getting small electrical shocks when ever I touch anything metal outside my Motorhome.Can anyone suggest how to r...

Met the owners of this Coaster in Rocky today. They're on their way to your neck of the woods Bill. Weren't sure how a Coaster would go on the Island, so I suggested they get in touch with you on the Forum . Hope you don't mind. In case they just arrive without contacting you, here are a few Pics of the Coast...

Am I misssing something here. I can't seem to get my Jayco Sterling to run on 240v. Is there an overload switch somewhere that I can't find? .....it's not the earth leakage switch, I've checked that. Where do I look?

1960 Hits RenamedSome of the artists of the 60's are revising their hits with new lyrics to accommodate aging baby boomers who can remember doing the "Limbo" as if it were yesterday. They include: Bobby Darin --- Splish, Splash, I Was Havin' A Flash Herman's Hermits --...

Gday... Camps6 1098 - Gumbend Lake - 5km west of Condobolin NSW. Water, hot showers, toilets, flat level sites, shady trees - excellent spot. I was going to stay two nights but I think I will stay a few more. cheers John

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETH...Have a great day!!! May all of your wishes come true.

I am just wondering how hard is it to raise the roof on a Jayco Penguin (I think that is the one with no ends sticking out?). Also does the winder mechanism ever give trouble and if it does can you still raise the roof by another method??? Thanks

Hi I have installed a Tekonsha P3 brake controller, and I notice that it appears to be ' on ' all the time. Is this normal? I considered putting a switch in the negative line, but wanted to check first. There is no van connected at this time, just getting ready. I replaced the Haynam Reece controller wit...

I have a friend who needs to eat Gluten Free food. During experiments with various recipes we came across Buckwheat flour. Even if you are not into gluten free food try making pancakes with Buckwheat Flour. Use your favourite recipe and enjoy a nice change.

Hi everyone, I have been able to make another trip to one of my favourite destinations. Singapore at present is hotter than usual (36c) but what a magical country it is. I have been coming here off and on for the past 40+ years and the development of the island state has been quite remarkable. For a nation...

After calling in to Keith and Maggies (a fantastic stop over) I now find that because of Keith letting me have first look at his delivered caravan magazine, I need a Happy Wanderer TV Tuning gizzmo. As I am sure that a few members afre well aware, the tuning of the TV often results in an argument. You know...

My 'little' brother is turning 50 on Monday. It feels a bit weird to me particularly because he was born on my 8th birthday. Our grandfather came up from Victoria to visit, which is the only time I ever remember seeing him. Mum had made my birthday cake, but hadn't yet iced it when she had to go to hospital....

In Darwin at Free Spirit Resort. I cannot praise the NT National Park Service highly enough, their Parks are incredible, their employees very helpful, their campsites affordable - Well Done! Sorry to hear that the gov't is considering cutting the tourism budget, I hope it doesn't apply to the Par...

Anyone travelling on the Oxley highway from Gilgandra to Coffs harbour via the New England highway recommend any good sites to stay. Have heard about the site next to the Emporium at Mullaley. All suggestions appreciated. While on here would like to recommend Behungra dam (about 20klms north of Jun...

G'day all. wondering if there are any of the 10th intake JRTE (05/01/1965) out there. Jack.

I don't know if this is an I Digress or travel relevant. Anyway I'm at Broken Hill tonight, all set to meet an oversize load tomorrow some time, headed for Newman, WA. Road transport continues to carry this country.

This is a great spot......no facilities tho This morning there was a flock of pelicans over on the lagoon next to the roadworks sight. At some stage the roadworks people have made the creek wider and deeper in that area. Emus walking past and a fox coming in the evening on top of this places to walk as well...
