Can anyone tell me where I can get an avan caravan key cut please? None of the locksmith or key cutting people have the right keys to do it. Do I have to go to the manufacturer? And how much do they cost? Thanks Tess

What a day. Ventured on to Alexandra, chin wagged with local fishing shop identity, a wealth of knowledge for trout and general fishing, plus adding his input with info from the last Bushfires which ravishid the land I later travelled thru. The drive out to Eildon is very worth the time. Viewed the wal...

What an amazing place! It's an old gold mining town. Fascinating place with a reasonable free camp that comes complete with lots of parrots, crimson rosellas and lots of other (less spectacular) birds. Some great walks to do to - though they are very hilly. It's deep in a valley so phones and inter...

We have been stopped over at the Berry showgrounds, just North of Nowra in NSW for 5 days. Pretty little town and the showgrounds are just great. Green grass everywhere, it's been awhile since we stepped out of the van onto something other than stones, etc. Basic amenities but it's all you need. We were...

I am now officially out of the work force and on the Governments books, and My wife finishes up next wednesday also, so to celebrate we are off to Pottsville NSW for the week in the van. Fishing and reading are the only things on the agenda, oh and relaxing by the water.

Had a huge salad sandwich and iced coffee. Once again a nice spot here, had Happy Hour with 3 couples, everyone is so friendly o...
