No, not mad, although some would say I am already mad. Me, myself and I, oh, and Jenni came with us, have gone from Greens Lake and now in South West Gippsland. We will be here for 3 weeks then heading North to bend some bananas for a while.

If you had the choice over again, would you choose a 3 way or 2 way built in fridge ?. I have the option of both. Is the performance of an absorption (3 way) adequate compared to an electric compressor based fridge ?

Our van came with a 40lt bar fridge and we can squeeze in a Vitrifrigo C130L fridge only but where to put the compressor is the problem. If you own one, where did you put your compressor? Our alternative is a Waeco 1080. I am concerned that even though it is double the size of what we currently have, things...

This company specializes in importing these from overseas, I assume Japan by the small kms (for the year) on them. Most of them seem to be 1998 models, although they have plenty of extras. They sound like they would be ideal for use as a very small campervan if you take the seats out. Anyone have any know...

Well - we are in our last 24 hours here in Tasmania. We have had the most amazing four months travelling over here - done over 6,000k's - stayed in only four paid caravan parks - the rest either free camps, donation camps or national parks. Free camping over here is amazing - and the locals utilise them to...
