WHAT I OWE MY MOTHER: 1. My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE. 'If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just finished cleaning.' 2. My mother taught me RELIGION. 'You better pray that this will come out of the carpet.' 3. My mother taught me about TIME TRAVEL 'If you don't straight...

We are still stuck in Kalgoorlie. Everything is moving so slow but expensively. No word yet on when the new (reconditioned) fuel pump can be installed. And then we have to remove the turbo & send that away to be reconditioned. So far it looks like costs will be between $7,000 & $8,000 all up...

Going to have a new Sticker made for the rear of the 'Van. Self explanatory I think. 90 Kph = 25% more K's. Cheers, Sheba.

I am after info. from the locals as to the 'residency' requirements for Vict. and SA. What do thebureaucrats require to transfer my van to that state? In Qld they accept a 'rent' receipt from a caravan park, and I was hoping that this may also be the case down south. Thanks, Patto

The first one picks it up & says, "Blow me I know this face but I can't put a name to it." The second pick...

Hi - I was talking to a chap who said he had all the campsites, caravan parks etc. listed in Camps6 on his GPS. He said it was loaded in by a friend of his. Does anyone know if you can load such data into your GPS in a bulk way, I.e., buy a loadable version to instal on a GPS? It would sure be handy! Cheers, Anto...

This is not a nice subject, but I feel it's worth a word of warning. While I was away,,Bundaberg actually,,I came down with a belly bug. I already have Ulcerative Colitis, which has been under control for several years. I had diarrhea and a terrible fever, but no vomiting. I thought I may have had a bit of...

Hi I'm not sure who it was a while back loking for an awning for a motor home and I thought this link might be of assistance as the price seems a bit less than normal. I have nothing to do with the seller its just that I came across the site while looking for other items. Regards Jim http://www.ebay.com.au/...

Hi all, Les and I (Donna) are beginning to plan our retiring journey to who knows where and who cares how long. We are looking at purchasing a 21' van with a Toyota Landcruiser to pull it. We have started looking and plan to go to the caravan show in Brisbane next year. I was wondering if there were any s...

After our shakedown trip, we need a new table for the van. We live on the Gold Coast and was wondering if any members know where we would start looking. Thanks in advance for any recommendations Pauline

After a very busy hour at the doctors today I am now on permanent medication for the first time in my life. Doc told me in January if I didn't get my cholestoral down she would put me on medication, so I did all the right things. Dropped 8 kilos, ate healthy which also dropped my blood pressure, so felt sure w...

This is the front story for today, and very sad. Was he one of ours and how could it happen? 71 year old Peter Worthington, it says. Seems he left the vehicle after getting bogged. I don't want to make light of this as a family have lost a dear one and this should be a warning to us all. Is it better for solos to d...
