Hi to all of you great GN members, While enjoying a wonderful time up at the Mareeba Rodeo grounds recently, I was amazed at how many of the travelling folk there, were using their computers for on-line banking and purchases, and just trusting in their Anti-virus programs to prevent any Cybercrime a...

We eventually got away from Kalgoorlie after our very expensive breakdown. We are now just west off Ceduna & breathing great dsighs of relief. Cheers
