Anyone want a couple of Grey Nomads to mind their house/pets over the Christmas period in Brisbane?? We've got family there but they'll have a full house - we are flexible over dates, but a couple of weeks would be good. Cheers The happy wanderers

Gday... I liked this idea when I read it but none has appeared yet ... so I thought I would put this up for interest. Not created a poll before ... hope it works. Cheers Julie & John

Tomorrow night ( Friday) there is going to be a story about Grey Nomads tripping around the country in their motorhomes. Just saw it advertised. This is in Vic. Not sure if all states get the same stories.

i dunno, maybe im just kidding myself, being on a pension and wanting my own campervan and to travel, every thing ilooked at so far has been too expensive or too many ks or too old i feel like giving up, life isnt what it was for me... just no good. i feel like crap latley... i feel like im waisting every ones...

Gday... Seems very few like surveys ..... praps 580 views of the survey ... but only 71 voted .... and NSW and QLD pretty close winners ... Vic behind ... rest too few... Not sure it was all worth it probably ... Cheers - back to happy travelling Cheers Julie & John

maybe something on a bit of a lighter note this week...........once upon a time there was a little bird that waited to long to fly north for the winter,, when he did finally start to fly he flew through a snow storm and soon became frozen and dropped to the ground in a cattle yard,, where upon a cow passing...

Whats every body using, are you using booster or not. I can tell you what you need in my area (part of my business) but I am after the best system for a roaming reception. cheers blaze

ok so i may have asked this question once before but just what makes a grey nomad ?? this is something that i've been pondering on a lot of late ? to qualify for the title of grey nomad do you have to be "homeless" and by that i mean do you have to sell up everything and hit the road or can you have a &qu...

I got one of these from Aldi yesterday for, (i think) $22, I now have three of them, as we travel with 2, 9kg and one 4.5kg gas bottles the 4.5 being a standby. Personally, I think they are worth the money especially as when the guage gets into the red I know that I have one more days worth of gas on the van frid...

The 6th grade science teacher, Mrs. Parks, asked her class, 'Which human body part increases to ten times its size when stimulated?' No one answered until little Mary stood up and said, 'You should not be asking sixth graders a question like that! I'm going To tell my parents, and they will go and tell...

A stark naked,drunken Australian woman,jumped into a vacant taxi in down town New Delhi. The Indian driver was immediately beside himselfand just kept on staring at the woman.He made no attempt to start the cab. What's wrong with you mate,haven't you ever seen a naked white woman befo...

i was just thinking i'd say like me many that travel around this land of ours like to "wet a line" i know i do i've tred some of the fishing forums on the net but none of them really take my fancy much,, to much comparing rod sizes LOL and so on,, so how about some reports of good places to wet a line fr...

Hi all, I'm starting to think I should maybe sell 'Lucy" and 'Gypsy' and get a van instead. Basically, the reason I didn't buy a campervan 18 months ago, was the cost of buying a late model and the cost of fuel driving it around town fulltime. (I don't intend being a full time nomad.) I was thinking o...

I realise this varies from person to person, but how do you all cope with back issues? The severity will vary, as will the way you manage it. What makes the back pain worse and better? I have several issues - disc degeneration which varies from disc to disc through most of my spine. I have arthritis a...

I always used to be already signed in when going to the forum (chosen via Favourites, not the link on the home page) but lately I have to sign in each time. Has something changed in the forum settings or is it my pc doing mysterious things?

A reminder as you sit and have your happy hour, keep a look out. Its that time of year again. Just came across the first big black snake for the year heading for our dam. Lucky our dog (yep. a border collie, so many G.N's seem to have them) couldn't be bothered to walk down to the paddock with me. Lost a jac...
