A few weeks ago I found myself motoring through outback Queensland and booked in at a park at Cunnamulla (nice park). From memory, the lady at the office said "that will be $30 per night - are there more than two people?" I told her there was just me and she said "then it's only $25". I had never thought a...

I have been looking at upgrading my caravan and thought I had made my final choice when I happened to look through a Villa caravan. Does anyone on the forum either own a Villa or have any knowledge about the quality of these vans? Thanks in advance for any replies.

The other half wants a coffee machine for the van. Can anyone recommend a particular model? Preferably not a pod type as we like to brew to our own strengths as we do at home. Have been looking at a delonghi at HNs but the reviews weren't too good which is a pity as it wasn't much bigger than a pod machine. Ap...

It's partly a financial thing - I am unlikely to be able to afford my own house, and am sick of renting. I think b...
