Gday... I have just spent about a week camped at Fletchers Creek (Dalrymple Nat Pk north of Charters Towers - Camps6 285) which was a fantastic camp spot. The crowds have just about left the north and west of QLD now and camp spots are pretty deserted - my preferred outcome. Photo below. I am presently si...

Looking for advise on how to set up the fridge and lighting with the 12vt capacity installed when purchased new. We have tried to run the 3 way fridge, with no result on any of the three power supp...

Have to drag ourselves away from beautifuliful Bribie Island (Qld) tomorrow, off to Imbil showground (near Gympie) for a caravan rally next weekend and then a ramble around that part of sunny sunshine coast and hinterland

I felt like a celebrity today in the local shopping centre car park. A lady approached me looking at my wheel cover and asked me if I was THE Cruising Granny on The Grey Nomads Forum. After introductions we sat with a cuppa and chatted for the next 3 hours sharing stories of travel plans. I have a feeling ne...
