Mick is home from Bundaberg and on his way, between gympie and Brisbane he counted 124 caravans, campers and motorhomes heading north. It just made us stop to think how many of us like minded people there are out there. And I must admit, a tinge of jelousy that we are not able to join them yet! But our turn...

Arrived in Karumba yesterday and have never seen so many vans in the one place. I don't think there are any victorians left at home, they are all here.

Now I know why you see so many bikes on the back of vans they must be the back up unit in case of breakdowns

I'm bored by all the rain so I'm looking at jokes, how about this one.

Just read this little snippet in the Daily Telegraph. Lets hope the people of NSW wake up some time soon and get rid of the current government. It's mostly people of our generation that these "little" taxes slug the hardest: "The greatest slug will be on motorists seeking to transf...

I checked out their web site Dave, and appears to be close by your terrain. Reads as a beaut spot to throw the swag. Ever been there and checked out the hospitality ? Might be a chance for me to pop over and met the family and say Hi.

I own one of the all-time gas/petrol guzzlers of all time; a 4litre Landcruiser station wagon with an automatic gearbox. City consumption in the 25lt/100km bracket. But, hey, who cares at 39.5 cents a litre (with supermarket docket). Filling the 140lt petrol tank instantly doubles the market val...

Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts. I have to wait for a couple of weeks for the results. The test seemed to go fine, the hospital staff were wonderful, the food was typical. So it's back to Cairns tomorrow after enjoying the hospitality of the "Cupies". Cheers Chris

A guy out on the golf course takes a high speed ball right in the crotch. Writhing in agony, he falls to the ground. As soon as he could manage, he took himself to the doctor. He said 'How bad is it doc? I'm going on my honeymoon next week and my fiancée is still a virgin - in every way' The doctor told him,...
