I think there is a contradiction of term in the title of this thread.. It is only for the QLD travellers, but let me be straight to the point here... Other than a few bits of km of Hwy here and there, Queensland in 2025 still have no REAL roads, at least, compare to the rest of the country.. In the bush the most...

I heated a bedroom in the house for...

I'm not condoning what she did. Just how quick these appear.

Hi all New to the forum but have been reading through all the posts and this looks like a great site. I'm in the still thinking about it stage but the plan would be to sell my house and just go travelling with my 2 wee dogs. I figure what's the point of keeping looking after a house and garden year in, year out a...
