Hi GreyNomaders, Just wondering how many of you might carry a Sat Phone for the Just in Case (In Case) situation. I have a PEB with GPS but that's more for the Adventure Riding aka (Big Trail Bike), I'd appreciate any thoughts are they worth it?

An article written in the Grey Nomads web page suggested that solar panel mounts should not be just glued to the vehicle roof, but should be glued and screwed. As far as I am concerned, this advice is incorrect, and that a properly glued joint is better than a screwed and perhaps poorly glued joint. I mig...

Twilight Payment has won the 2020 Melbourne Cup and taken home $4.4 million in prize money for owner Lloyd Williams, who has now won seven of the great race.

Tell me why you can't take 20 year old panels off a house and use them on a RV. It's a hypothetical question. What are the technical issues?

When you get taxed $300 a week and it goes to a bloke on Centrelink you should get a little flyer in the mail updating you on how hes travelling like when you sponsor a kid on world vision. Hope you are well Larry from Doonside
