The email is a viral email. To verify this you can check out this link https://www.donotcall.gov.au/alerts.cfm The link given i...

On our recent trip away, we found out fairly quickly that overseas visitors hiring campervans are also being issued with a Camps 6 book. It has been fascinating to meet so many of them in the free/budget camps. Our last visit to Richmond saw washing strung out between the rails of some steps! Ingenious...

Had our van serviced by Jayco in Bairnsdale (East Gippsland Vic) and asked them to check ball weight. 290kg Mmmmmmmm too much for the Navara tow bar rated to 250kg's. So did some culling and re-arranging and called in there today on our travels and got it weighed again :) 200kg's - no charge and very obl...

The 1st Affair A married man was having an affair with his secretary. One day they went to her place and made love all afternoon. Exhausted, they fell asleep and woke up at 8 PM. The man hurriedly dressed and told his lover to take his shoes outside and rub them in the grass and dirt. He put on his shoes and dr...

Do you agree with the handout to Holden? Why doesn't any small business get a handout? Should for instance, the caravan manufacturing industry in Australia get a big handout, so they can afford to do more research into design and modernise. How much is keeping people employed in inefficient indust...

Will anyone be in Berri or nearby for the weekend? I'll be there for a Sing Australia gathering, but I'd love to catch up with anyone who may be there. I'll be in the van park overnight after an afternoon of singing.

Have to take my darling girl to see the cardiologist today; she has to have an echo ultrasound. She not only has a heart murmur but also an abnormal irregularity in her heart beat. Keeping our fingers and paws crossed for a positive outcome.

As advertised tonight at the end of the Today/Tonight programme there will be a segment on faulty caravans and how dangerous and potentially a fire hazard. Might be worth watching.
