Camper shot while free camping near Alice Springs

I've just posted a response to the topic Solo cooking recpies? / bread maker worth having? As the original posting is a little stale (pardon the pun, groan!) I note it here to freshen it up (gawd it gets worse)

Hello all... I've just used one of those online trip planners regarding the directions from Nambucca Hds to Inverell. I'm not sure it kept me to good roads and I'm asking whether anyone has ever travelled these roads and... good or bad? I'm not a 4WDer or an off-roader: Ebor to Guyra - looks a bit suspec...

Greeting to all After visiting Alice Springs in September last year I can't wait to get back. I have purchased an old 1986 Toyota Hiace diesel van, partially set out, in the process of outfitting for greater indepenence. Will run a sinewave 2400 watt inverter for bar fridge and small appliances, is th...

I thought being a chef i should have some input in this section I asked my husband what I cook when we go camping. He said nothing i make him take me to the nearest pub or restaurant not quite true i do actually cook. So this isnt a recipe as such its the essential things to take when camping that I would never...

Who has been here? The King George Falls in the Kimberley. Cheers, Peter

Hi All, This may seem a weird question, I am looking at what other caravanners do with their spare time as in playing cards etc. We play Dominoes, Crib and we have just purchased a new game called Secquence, which seems weird as there is no real tally up at the end so nothing really to achive or beat someone...

Just yesterday, happened to see a guy dumping his toilet cassette down the drain in a campsite at Glen Innes NSW. That is the drain for "Sullage" I suppose, by the eletrical and water hookups. Noticed about three minutes later, he is washing the cassette out, by putting the Water...

An old man and woman were married for many years and they grew to hate each other. When they had a confrontation, screaming and yelling could be heard deep into the night. The old man would shout, 'When I die, I will dig my way up and out of the grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!' Neigh...

Gidday all I Have been missing in action for a while, but its all about sorting myself out. Retirement is not what it was cracked up to be, so I am back at work and feeling better about it. Up in north Qld for the sugar cane crush, driving trucks, camping at a caravan park (no free camps!!! bastard). Have upg...

Had to put my dog in therapy, he had an addiction

Well June 8th is the day we take off from Perth heading North to Katherine and Darwin, will not come quick enough.

Looking at hitting the road jan/feb next year and would like to/need to earn a few dollars along the way to fund our trip. Looking to be on the road about 10 months. Thought it may be a source of a small income if I was to take my portable massage table. Whats your thoughts. cheers blaze

One day a man came home from work to find total chaos in the house. The kids were laying outside in the mud, still in their pajamas, and empty food boxes were on the kitchen counter. When he opened the door, he found an even bigger mess: dishes on the counter, dog food spilled on the floor, a broken glass und...

We are looking for a spot on the NSW South Coast over the Christmas/New Year period. We really don't want to go any further than Merimbula. Any suggestions?

MY HUSBAND AND I STAYED AT THE FREE REST STOP AT THE WEIR FOR THE DAY.

I often think I will spend 1/2 hour before bed checking out the caravan forums on this and other sites and before I know it several hours have passed. Do other people have this problem or do I need to be more diciplined - comments and opinions appreciated, thanks
