Hi Nomads. The V8s race again this weekend at Bathurst. I watch this race every year on TV unfortunately my rig will not be finished in time, but I WILL BE THERE NEXT YEAR and I can't bloody wait and it will be my first time at the mount. Are any Gray Nomads going this year? Cheers Frank.

Just wondered if anyone here has experience with a Kipor generator. Are they as quiet as the Honda and as easy to start? They are a bit cheaper than Honda, but not as cheap as the no-name ones on ebay. I know Dave won't approve, but I've worked out it's the easiest way for me to go, given the equipment I've...

All you lovers of the English language might enjoy this: There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is 'UP' . It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP ? At a meetin...
