Centre line huggers.
(Preview)
Why oh why do so many GN caravaners hug the centre line on the road leaving well over a metre of usable road to their left hand side?

Expensive campsites

How much is a cheap campsite and when does it become expensive for you? I'm a solo nomad and so when I find a campsite for just $15 a night I think it's cheap. Do you couples think that $30 a night is cheap? I've yet to be in a campsite that is full so I've never taken up space that could have been used by two. I'm h...
