I think it really works better if you let us all know approx where you are or heading to Ruth. Does for me anyway.

I don't actually have a GN  sticker on the van but I don't think I could be missed either,
 

 

Hope you are both enjoying being out in the playground. 

 

Yes, Dougwe I realise I could have come on line and asked if any were around the areas we were but we didn't always have the internet. And I love your 'back' - couldn't miss you. (Hopefully we won't when we get back either!!)
Oh, and now I'm on line, we're in the Mallee region at the moment, heading south near Warracknabeal.

At home at present ..Mrs Gall blader opp coming up .
I have an infection in my leg too..

Shut the front gate! The old Willows hey, my stomping ground while in Townsville, unless I am down the Strand of course.

How, Denis. I'm heading up there again end April, there by second week May.

Sorry to go  

  

 

Ruth.

Blame KFT cos he taught me. 

There are a few of us ourselves , sarge and colleen up here in Monto showgrounds volunteering with Blaze Aid .
Drop in and say G'Day if you're passing through or better still stay a day or two the more the merrier
Cheers
Chris

Soo sorry about this.

Hiding in the upper Hunter Valley at Broke enjoying the Music in the park for few days before heading west.

Highwayman that's exactly what we're finding. We've only got the original sticker but it doesn't find anymore GNs than anything else. Never mind. We have met some lovely people as we stop.

Now I'll go off topic in my own thread and ask 'Is there a law about not being allowed to wave at a fellow caravanner in Victoria? We have found that nearly every person who has NOT waved in return to our wave is a Victorian. But I know Dougwe would wave - cos he doesn't know what state he belongs to anymore.

Hey Graeme. Hope the gall bladder op goes smoothly and they clear up your leg.....don't be off-line too long, we enjoy your comments, especially your tech stuff and we need as many Kiwis on this site as we can to keep the level of conversation up LOL.....now that should get things going!!

And bring on your sheep jokes. Just remember that kangaroos didn't hop nervously about and bound away till white men arrived and wombats didn't have a glazed look in their eyes and head for the nearest hole in the ground (thought I would start the NZ/AUZ jokes first)

 Aha I'll wait till after the cricket ...

funny when you go overseas .. The country your in starts  bagging Aussie or NZ.. The thing is we stick up for each other then ..

If you ever go to west coast of South Island NZ there some funny Aus/NZ post cards down there..

like old Robert Muldoon ( Ex prim minister ) said .. For every Kiwi going to Aus the IQ goes up in both countries.. 

Hmm ? Still doesn't say much for me.. Lol love good educated banter !! 

Another is why Aussies are drinking out of saucers ? Because NZ has all the cups ..

Having a couple of nights here at My Gambier at Pine Country c/pm which was recommended on here -Lovely little park and very friendly people. Went to look at Blue Lake, closed for wedding, but on talking to lady in kiosk, it seems Pete may have been instrumental in her hubby signing up for the Army Reserve back in the '80s and he is still in it! Will go back this morning to see if he remembers Pete. Heading for Meningie and Hahndorf, then Swan Reach for Easter.

Graeme. I notice our rude Ozzie jokes are being totally ignored LOL

Love the one about the Cups - that's a classic !!

I don't bother watching NZ/Aust games anymore - its so boring............same result the Kiwis win (except for the hockey and basketball when they usually best us - but only just !)

Back on topic, I think the Grey Nomads sticker needs to be changed. Im only 62 and dye my hair to brown, so I'm not a Grey Nomad haha. I suspect the younger Gorum members wouldn't be too keen on having a GREY Nomad sticker on their vehicles. Maybe the sticker name could be changed to something like "Travelling Nomads". Maybe the site needs a name change as well...younger ones may think its only for geriatrics, when of course its not. Opinions??

Parked opposite Rudds Pub in Nobby, Qld.  On our way to Walcha for family gathering at Easter, after farm sitting between Goomeri and Murgon for 7 weeks.  Yay, finally on the move

KFT, We'll be fine in the caravans, just worried about the "younger" ones who are camping in tents! 

After Walcha, we have two months at Delungra - another farm sit

Having spent "summer" for the past 18 months, we are really looking forward to "cold", in fact to the extent that we have now taken a house sit in Wollongong in July, and one in Bright in August. Suckers for punishment

When you are on the road permanently, you take the good with the bad, the hot with the cold and the wet with the dry and the scotch with a dash of water.  Just got to love this country.
