Surat proved to be a bit too cold. I thought Queensland was warm in the winter but after scraping ice off the windscreen for three mornings I decided that further north was warranted. I have now reached Nirvana near Proserpine in the dry tropics. A fabulous campground with great shade from the strong...

Sorry to anyone that couldn't read my below update (separate post) but something went wrong during the cut and paste process. I am getting used to 'Windows 10' as I had to buy a new Laptop so the update is getting done a different way now.

Hi Nomads, I guess this maybe a rather personal question but if you don't ask you don't learn. Through circumstances I am about to jump in my pop top Mazda van and take off. Is it possible to survive on just the pension or will I die of starvation, water, no money for fuel. I do have an extremelly small super...

Hi, I'm doing a bit of research before I make the big commitment to pack up and travel the country. I am looking at buying a motorhome and funding the trip as I go. What I am wanting to know is if there is enough work out there to be able to do this and are there any other solo's doing the same thing? I'm 43 years o...

Patti and I had a lovely few hours doing the pubs in the scrub. Stopped at the Sheepyard Inn and had coffee while the donkey heated the water for our shower. Then on to Grawin Hilton for a huge lunch - fish n chips for $16. Popped in to the Club in the Scrub - a chartered club and golf course. Gravel roads but to...

Yes, I understand that people need other people to talk with etc. and it seems today that people are so cautious when they are out there, but some people take it to the extreme. Especially couples. I am always friendly but sometimes people must think you are going to borrow a cup of sugar off them or what...

Plodnalong got to Theodore before being distracted by Mundubbera and 2 weeks of mandarin picking. Bugger me that is hard work for little money! Luckily Manpower rang so it's back southwesterly to Surat, south of Roma for some grain site work. If you are going through town do explore the local shop as i...
