As we have many new nomads that have joined our forum recently I thought it would be a good time to repost a list of what I consider to be very helpful websites. I'm sure you will find one or 2 that will be of help.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.toiletmap.gov.au/ In need of a toilet stop in a hurry? This site should help
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://weather.ninemsn.com.au/ Type in the town on the left of the page & get a full weather report & 7 day prediction. For a more comprehensive report http://www.bom.gov.au/ is the place to go
