Just a quick note to let you you know about a caravan park at Narrandera NSW. It is a Member of the OZ Parks group and we are presently here at the moment. The park is a credit to the owners, it is neat and tidy and the staff are a very friendly bunch. It is very dog friendly to the point that dogs are even permit...

Hi Everyone, This is an introductory posting. Darryl and I purchased a campertrailer last September and have been on a couple of camping trips since then. We are new to this whole experience and are getting ready to join all of the other nomads around the country. We still have a lot to learn and we hop...

Busted a screen today so made the inquires of my insurer GIO, it appears that there's an option for $20 per year that will allow one free replacement and not effect your No Claim Bonus.

We are just back from a trip of almost 3 weeks to the north coast of NSW. We were originally scheduled to travel through VIC to the Great Ocean Road the 10 days after the devastating fires. When we left the Central Coast the fires were still raging throughout several areas of VIC and we travelled through t...

I ride a Honda ST1300 and put in somewhere around 20000 km each year in outback touring - mainly staying in camp and tourist parks along the way. The camping gear...

Hey Whoever is the boss on this wonderful site, whadya think about selling a Grey Nomads bumper sticker so that when we are on the road, we may recognise one another and stop and say hello for a cup of tea, or something stronger.

Has any one camped at Mambray Creek CG. What was it like & the fees. Love to hear

I see on the news that the country is now in the grip of the 'R' word. I agree with the experts - with one big difference! In their eyes 'R' is for 'recession' but for me it is for 'RETIREMENT'!!!!!!!! As from last Friday I am now officially a nothing in official eyes but watch out for us on the road. We are boo...

One thing would be for certain, i...

In the '70's I lived in Melbourne for about 5 years and hated it. Weather, Pollution, Weather, Traffic, Weather, Strikes, but most of all, Weather. Well, the last week hasn't made me change my mind one bit. I was planning to leave today anyway, but had planned to do the Great Ocean Road, but I just couln...
