I just got a rough quote for our Tassy trip and it worked out at $1158, just to get us and the van over there! That's not including a return trip. I couldn't believe it. Does that sound right to you guys? I'm in shock, I didn't believe it would cost so much. We are now considering trying to get cheap flights an...

Afternoon all. We are awaiting delivery of our new van, which has a Truma Avanti aircon. unit. The supplier has told us that a Honda 2.0kva inverter generator would suffice to operate it, providing no other 240 volt appliance is being used. This would be fine with us, as a 3kva is too big and bulky for our...

This is just for anyone heading for northern Qld (or already there). In addition to the famed Comfort Stop the good people of Home Hill have opened up their showground. And a very nice place to stop it is. It costs $10 a night for a powered site - the same for unpowered (they like to keep things simple) so...

We went for a drive out to Murray Falls for a look around and to see how many Nomads were out there enjoying the place. Walking around and having a chat to some of the lucky travellers, I noticed a large branch had broken off the Bluegum Tree next to the couple we were talking to. I pointed it out the guy and...

Bugger he's still around I just heard someone up in the Dress Circle say. You can't help bad luck can you. Well, this last week has been very hectic indeed, this retirement and grey nomad thing is really hard work and I tell you that for free. I decided to take myself off to the moving pictures last Tue...

G'day We are planning a trip to Karumba via Charters Tower at the end of next month. We are towing a large van with a Triton V6 petrol motor. My concern is if there plenty of places where I can fill up along the way, as I don't have long range fuel tanks. I also believe it's illegal to carry fuel in jerry c...
