Streaky Bay S.A.
(Preview)
It has been a very long time more than 20 years since I was in Streaky Bay. Lovely town and surrounding area. Each time I was there I never bothered watching any TV, how ever we are planning a road trip with the van through the area and will spend several days at one of the caravan parks, probably the one in to...

Strange performance of solar blanket
(Preview)
Just fiddling with a supplementary solar blanket and since my battery has a bluetooth transmitter I can monitor performance of all the solar equipment in real time. The blanket is comprising 8 panels each about 500 x 400 sewn into a folding suitcase-style carry handle. Its not a real flash day, but...

My reading of overseas news is indicating worrysome times possibly afoot at the end of this year given the predictions of a "new variant" EG.5 "Eris" being noted in the USA, in Australia BA.2.86 "Pirola" and seven other countries on alert.

We need this item/part to lock our awning to the van.
(Preview)
Does anyone know the name of the spare part/item that the awning arm connects to the bottom of the side of the van? It is the part where one can disconnect the awning arm (once the awning is fully extended) from the van and use it as a pole pegged into the ground.
Sorry, but best description I can come up wit...

A bit of typographical common sense wouldn't go astray.
(Preview)
It's not a good idea to write endless lines of type so that anyone with an A4 style page size has to concentrate when returning to the next line of conversation. The general style preferred is 80 - 120 characters per line. Some of the posts here are bloody difficult to read - the eye cannot easily jump to...

Campervan with two water tanks - one entirely grey water
(Preview)
Just perusing a newsletter about a new campervan and was surprised to see that it had one 100L water and one 100L greywater tank. Crossed my mind that 100L for greywater is a huge overkill - I have gotten by with a 20L occasional use drum for those hysterical mainly Council camps that demand that the gre...
