I've had a look at both the battery and the stuff that is in a little door at the front of the van, driver's side. Written on the side of a small black box is WALKI ELECTRONICS. Above that is a series of 6 or 8 fuses. There is an ON/OFF switch at the side which is set to ON. The black box is warm, but not hot. I wi...

Hope the situation continues when it our turn in a few years. Fraser Range is s...

Here are some pics from inside Felicia. Obviously, she is not quite yet finished. Still doors to go onto cupboards and drawers and things - but you get the idea. Final photo is of the "toolbox" house on the back.

Picture this...I'm walking behind a woman of about 60ish, nice figure, wearing light grey leggings, with either no undies or a Gstring, and a top that didn't cover her bum.

Age didn't really have anything to do with it. In my opinion, leggings should only be worn with a long top.

A question for someone who understands such things. Due to an unfortunate accident one of our solar panels is twisted and scratched. I have a multi meter but am unsure how to test if the panel still works so any advice would be appreciated.

Arrived here today. In case anyone is wondering the area is quite firm for parking up so it has dried out nicely since the rains. About 20 RV's here tonight. We'll be here a few days. Call in for a cuppa if you're passing

We'd intended free-camping on the Eyre Highway, but we usually stop in roadside stops/free-camps for morning tea and lunch, and we found the ones we stopped at were filthy. There is all kinds of garbage lying around,...
