We did not want to trade in the camper as nobody wins whe...

Split your bag of ice into manageable sizes and vacuum seal the ice. The ice still keeps everything cool and on the plus side, when it has melte...

I've been thinking of other bits of fun we had on our first crossing of the Nullarbor back in 75, After we did the flood crossing and were back on tar seal, we were waved down by 4 blokes who apparently had got on the Grog in Melbourne, then one of them said lets head for Perth, so off they went, they were drivi...
