First time poster on the forum,although have been stalking the site for quite some time and have learnt a lot,and still more to learn yet.Seems like I already know a lot of forum members already,without having met.

I have met one GN, my wife and myself  live only 30 minutes drive from Greens Lake but have never been there,so last November decided to take a drive and see what we have been missing out on all these years and yes can see why a lot of GNs love it.there was only one forum member there at the time it was Ziggy,had a nice chat to him.

We are what you would call wanabe nomads,our old lab dog and our cat,hold us back from traveling away to far,if you''s can undersand that.Our biggest trip away we towed our van across to the Flinders Rangers,and up to Lake Eyre,wanted to see it when it was full of water,brother and sister inlaw came and stayed and took care of things.

I would like to set up the van for free camping,solar panel batterys and such,as we like the idea of free camping.Just a couple of questions,is a porta potti classed as a cassette toilet,and the other is how do you find out where dump points are located I wouldn't know what one looked like,and in my travels have never seen a sign saying Dump point.

Sorry about ranting on,must be excited about being a member of grey nomads,hoping to meet other gn's out there if not on the road will catch up when you's gather at Greens

 

Welcome to the Forum Paj74! If you are going to do a lot of traveling, a book such as Camps Australia is invaluable. Also, in setting up for free camping, be sure to do your homework as mistakes can be expensive. An invaluable source of information is this Forum!
