Watch battery died whilst in Longreach - had difficulty in getting it replaced (sealed diving watch) the local electronics guy (opposite newsagency) was able to remove and replace. He also had a good supply of GME Radios and spares.

Pizza night every Thursday at the pub - great pizza...

Hi all. Just wondering what everyone does with their Caravan Insurance when they return home after being away from the winter months each year. As we all know insurance is not cheap. I wonder if people cancel the insurance during the time the van is not being used and then start it up again just before th...

Is anyone else having difficulties with the concertina style Lotus Freelander window dressings. We are finding the privacy screen is peeling away and the operational cords are braking. Have replaced some dressings only to find that within months they are still a faulty product.

1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead.Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow.Do not walk beside me for the path is narrow. In fact, just piss off and leave me alone. 2. Sex is like air.

Salutations, welcome to my August update. Sit back and read away.I will start off with the weather report but I don't have a big map behind me or a gizmo in my hand so sorry about that. The month started with low to mid-teens overnight and stayed that way all month with mid to high 20's during the day all mon...

Had an ant problem in the van for a couple of weeks. Could see no entry or exit point, just had ants popping up every time I turned around. Tried all sorts of baits, nothing worked, or even slowed them down. One day that was hot we left a damp sponge on the sink and went out for the day. When we came back, moved t...

If you have a dead or near dead lithium battery that you can't get any joy regarding a warranty replacement, I'm interested in buying it. I want to see just what it is that is failing in these drop in 12v batteries and the only way I'll find out is to open them up. So, if you want to get a few $$ for something tha...

Funny video that a few of you might relate to...........

I purchased a new van 6 months ago (not my first) and it's fitted with a Dometic RMDX25 fridge. Whether it's a hot day or cool day, whether it's running on LPG, 240v or 12v, it will not cool below 8 degrees, measured with a min/max digital thermometer. It has to be the fridge, not the power source and I am th...

Have just spent two nights there. It has a very large, grassed area and clean toilets. It is supposed to be for fully self-contained vehicles, but there were a couple of tents and a few campervans, also. It was quiet and although right on the Newell, truck noise wasnt and issue for me. Its close to the tow...
