I am currently in Apollo Bay, having driven down the GOR, for the first time in years, from the Warrnambool side. All good from my point of view and Miss Daisy and Seedling handled the hills beautifully. A word of warning though if you are travelling this road. Take care and be aware of the amount of Asia...

Gday... GNs have been calling for sites such as these in van parks for a very long time. So, is this lack of patronage a result of poor marketing/advertising? ... or simply that GNs don't really want to be in a van park even if it is low-cost site for self-contained rigs? Cheers - John

I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on what they found was essential and what they regretted giving space to.

Oh and a...

Also, we have a skirt and were wondering how people prevent ants from getting into the van. t...
