We are looking at blanking out the big windows in the bus, and getting RV windows fitted. Prices here for small windows, (many with storage damage) are unreal, so we are turning to the ever-reliable GN brains-trust. Online is better, because we are still in Tassie. Cheers al!

I went for a walk through the Gunbower Island forest this morning, and there were black birds there everywhere. To start with I thought they were crows but they were not, a little smaller, not squawking, and when they flew off they had white under their wings. They were really pretty when in flight. Jus...

I was wondering if someone could help me out with this question. We are soon going away in the van hoping too do some free camping and have been told that in some free camps you need to contain your grey water. We are looking for a portable grey water tank about 40/50 litres. We have tried lots of caravan spa...

We think that we have sway bars. 2 iron poles with bend one end and chain. Not sure if we need them for 14ft pop top van with a 2.5 Nissan Navara ute. We also are not sure how we fit. Have a Haymen Reece tow bar. Being newbies and wanting to get it right we are hoping someone out there could tell us if it's worth us...

We have just arrived here. A basically "free" camping spot - on private land. Donation welcomed. There is a toilet but otherwise you need to be self contained. They are in the process of organising to get a dump point installed. Large flat area & nice surroundings - very quiet.

I am selling a vehicle which has a full tank of fuel and want to siphon half off before sale. Can someone tell me if you can still siphon fuel from a tank with a hose or are they designed these days to prevent that (other than any mods an owner may have done to prevent theft etc) ?
