Recently stopped for cuppa in Goomeri, NE of Murgon, W of Gympie. A local approached me and said I was welcome to stay for 20 hours.

However as the couple walked out of the house, the dog shoots back in the house. They don't want the dog shut in the house, so the wife goes out to the taxi...

I have never experienced what material things mean to some people.They were like a pack of vultures (maybe that as a little harsh)but if this is what people are like I would prefer to have nothi...

Just found "Pickles.com.au", a motor auctioneer, has a caravan and motorhome auction coming up. Its at Milperra, NSW on 01/08/09 If you are in the market for a new rig, may be a good opportunity. They also have "online" bidding, for those that can not attend. Worth a look.

I heard a radio interview today with one of the two Sydneysiders who crossed the Tasman from Oz to NZ in a double Kayak. What a feat and adventure, listening on how they answered the call of nature was humorous to say the least. See link below for some detail. http://www.crossingtheditch.com.au/...
