If there are any of our Nomads heading in this direction, although I would doubt it, the following news item on ABC radio could be of interest. "The temperature in Oodnadatta yesterday, (14th) was 47 deg and the roadhouse could only serve petrol between 11.00am and 3.00pm as the fuel evaporated...

Hi all, what do bus owners use or recommend as stabilisers for a bus when stationary, to reduce movement from wind and getting in and out? We don't need levellers to get it level, we use timber for that, but something to stop the rocking. What suggestions, where might we find such a thing, and any idea on...

Hi all we are travelling to Tasmania in January 2013 and read that fuel containers need to be empty of fuel and filled with water. So this poses a couple of questions... Can you refill the containers unleaded and diesel with fuel again? and what to do about generators. Maybe easier to buy new containers...

I was reading another thread about rego labels, etc for NSW vehicle regos. This is a simple tool to help identify if a vehicle is registered in NSW. https://myrta.com/regcheck/ Follow a couple of prompts and you can get a few details on a vehicle. Daryl

When I was heading to my sisters at Tin Can Bay, I detoured through Pomona/Kin Kin Road, as I often do. But I stupidly went by Counter Road which is very rocky and rough. When I arrived at Sis', bil noticed water coming from the tank. I don't use the tank very much, because of the extra weight, but I do put 10...
