Not through lack of maintenance, but just natural attrition. My split system aircon has just failed to warm. Everything works except the warming part, so now I'm subject to a ref...

Does anyone know much about the Kipor Generators, they seem to be the same rating as the Honda EU20i but quite a bit cheaper. Have noticed there's a few for sale on Ebay.

Can't sleep,so thought I'd catch up with what you lot have been up to for the last few weeks. Can I have a whinge? It's been such a lousy few week... first the loss of a great "mate" of 40 years.

Well the turbo arrived back from Perth & my husbane Keith reinstalled it today so hopefully we can be back on the road tomorrow. Surely we have the last of our bad luck for a while.

I'm Rosie, he's Troy, and before Christmas - health willing, we will be hitting the road in a caravan we are yet to buy.

How exciting! It's a wee little Viscount Nipper, 11ft, 590kg poptop! Perfect for Lucy to tow! Dan came with me to inspect it, and it passed. The owner is getting it inspected, and gas cert done, and all should be ready for me to collect her when I get back from Cooloola on Thursday. Of course, Dan can't hel...

Just watching this show on CH7 (in Qld anyway) - just showed some amazing footage of the Bungle Bungles - they are magnificent - if you get a chance go in and see them for yourself. Well worth the trip in.

I met with Jules and Travel Bug today for a cuppa at Ipswich. We hit it off right away and didn't pause for breath for about 2 hours!

I think there'll be a few more 'cuppas' in the future. What say you 'ladies'?!
