I used to be indecisive but now I am not so sure.
Think the old cleche applies here,IF IN DOUBT DONT.Sounds like my predicament.Are you retiring Robert.The wife and I have just pulled th pin and would not have a clue what to do( we still have one at home).The open road does sound very inviting,however we will need to put down roots first and also sounds more secure to us financially.We are considering selling up and moving to Queensland around Hervey bay area but am not sure whether I can take the heat,maybe Tassie would be the way to go.I would suggest as many (both)have suggested on this forum that you rent a van first to see if this is the life for you and then buy. Good Luck

You are about to open one of the biggest can of worms u could imagine. B4 u start u will need to put a plan in place on exactly what u really want to do. When u have done that then u will need to list what equipment etc u will require to do it. That is when u will decide on exactly what u will do. My advice is to make sure u no what u really wish to do b4 u start purchasing. As for the house ...... well now again it will become clear when u start ur planning.
