I see on the news that the country is now in the grip of the 'R' word. I agree with the experts - with one big difference! In their eyes 'R' is for 'recession' but for me it is for 'RETIREMENT'!!!!!!!! As from last Friday I am now officially a nothing in official eyes but watch out for us on the road. We are boo...

One thing would be for certain, i...

I am surprised at the lack of posts re the article on the Gray Nomad Home Page re the rather scary reaction to a proposal to build a smallish motorhome/caravan park in a spot called Plainlands, in Qld.
