Picture this...I'm walking behind a woman of about 60ish, nice figure, wearing light grey leggings, with either no undies or a Gstring, and a top that didn't cover her bum.

Age didn't really have anything to do with it. In my opinion, leggings should only be worn with a long top.

A question for someone who understands such things. Due to an unfortunate accident one of our solar panels is twisted and scratched. I have a multi meter but am unsure how to test if the panel still works so any advice would be appreciated.

Hi we are new to here :) Nice to meet you all. We have travelled around the southwest of our state camping in a tent... then setting up our car to sleep in, and now are in the process of doing up a coaster bus for the BIG trip! We are planning on letting our son have our home for a year so he can save and look after t...

We arrived in Eucla this afternoon, (so glad to be back on the internet again!) We'd intended free-camping on the Eyre Highway, but we usually stop in roadside stops/free-camps for morning tea and lunch, and we found the ones we stopped at were filthy. There is all kinds of garbage lying around,...

Well I've gone and done it when I didn't plan to - spent the inheritance. I've traded in the Driftaway Little Robin Mini for a Coromal Compac which has more space for the doglets and I. It is a 2008 model and has an aircon built in and a battery pack. My query is about the battery pack. Where I bought it I w...

Van 2 is 2400kg tare and 210kg towball weight Prado will tow 2500kg, and Pajero 3000kg (but over 2501kg ballweight is 180kg...

I contacted 5 Caravan manufacturers as suggested, and asked them what I asked the forum: Can anyone tell us why the backs of the seats have to be made up of 2 cushion rolls, (or more,) with one overhanging the other like the flab on a very obese persons gut? Also, why do the seats have a large roll along th...

Did a load of washing this morning then headed out for the day. When we got back in mid-afternoon and went to get the washing off the line, we found that all the shirts that had 3 pegs in them now only had 2 pegs. What sort of person steals someone elses pegs from off their washing?

Hi all, just wanted to introduce me and him! We are practising 'grey nomads' at the moment, we bought our very first van about 2 years ago, and absoultely love getting away in it! It is parked in the backyard and every time I go down to it I open the door and wish we were someplace else. Hopefully next yea...
