I am a Brisbane newbie to this forum and have quietly watched all the advice put out there by the experienced nomads. Much appreciated.
It is now time to "suck it and see". I will start off with some small trips, the first up to Gladstone and then back down inland visiting a few places mentioned by others eg Wuruma Dam. Plus catching up with friends.
My comms I still have not worked out properly...keeps giving me a headache so I put it off ....and off. No doubt it will all fall into place at some stage.
Good luck and have fun. I've been having small trips for just on a year now and love it. I found it amazing what I've thrown out of the van that I thought I couldn't lie without. Like you I've searched the forums and taken much advice on board but still have much to learn.
