I've arrived at Greens a couple of hours ago. I notice the new toilet block is about half way there. Very strange design with at least 7 doors facing down to the camping ground . Hopefully it will look better when finished .Not sure where the dump point will go. Will take photos tomorrow

1. Two months ago I had a severe pain in my left thigh late one night. We thought it was a pinched nerve or could have been muscular although it felt like a severe DVT. I went to bed (we'll check in the morning) but a few hours later, had to call an ambulance as the pain was unbearable. Nothing was found in many...

Hi all, A few times here, and on the other forum, I have seen where people had problems unhooking their caravan from the tow ball. Mainly when the ground is uneven. This is due to not having enough clearance to get the jockey wheel in place. So some people run the van up on ramps. But this really just seems t...

We sold up everything, even the house as it was in a small country town, and for medical reasons we had to be nearer hospitals and doctors at that time. We are now renting a place, as we have our two younger adult girls living with us. So we bought...

came across one of the stories of S. Kidman and his Cattle Empire. We get Utube on our large home T.V. and I thought that it was a interesting sort of documentary of the man who created an empire. It goes for 50 min, so if you have the time have a look. Jay&Dee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvHKV...
