)
(Preview)
Hi .. We have been caravanning for around 12yrs & only free camped once. Free camping seems to have grown amazingly in popularity over the years, so it must have something going for it. Can you tell me what attracts you to free camping & how you go about it. We always choose a CP site that has a vie...

Renewing rego on the road (WA)
(Preview)
Spoke today (Monday) to WA licensing authorities and found that you can renew van registration up to three months in advance.
This could be handy for those who want to go away and will therefore not be home to get the renewal notice in the mail.
