Couldn't believe the article heading The Grey Nomad Times this week referring to the Peterborough, South Australia, RV park. Coincidentally we stayed there a couple of nights ago, lots of bird life along with a resident mob of roo's. It's a fee camp, not sure what people expect, a brass band to welcom...

I purchased a telescopic builders pole from Bunnings and have been able to raise the roof unassisted, for the first time. Now I just need to work on how to get it down. I'm armed with parrot type clips and a length of rope. J. -- Edited by Jamjar on Sunday 6th of December 2015 04:12:09 PM
