Well, just had the bubble burst. Thought we might take a few weeks in Tassie in February 2010. Did the usual web searches and found that to take the tug and tow on the boat from Melbourne would cost 6 times the cost of a single car yet it would only occupy the space of two and half standard cars. No wonder Tas...

We're about to head back East across the Nullarbor and we have heard that SA takes fresh fruit and veg off you at Ceduna (which is pretty bizarre, as WA takes them off you when you head west, what, do the two states get worried about sharing germs??).

BRUISER © His battle-scarred body lay in the shade on the cool verandah. A raised eye brow and one partially opened eye discreetly followed the movement of a passer-by. He was loyal and faithful, but could be spiteful if left home alone. Bruiser would bite his owner. Not enough to do any damage...

He has reserved, at this stage, 7 powered sites and has offered a further discount of 10% for those of you who tell him you a...
