My hubby Alan and I are new to the forum and looking forward to chatting with you all. We live in Flowerdale Vic and hope to set off in March to the western district, Halls Gap and surrounds, maybe even as far as Mt. Gambier. Have a great Australia Day. Bye for now. Brenda

And a big WELCOME from me to, Brenda and Alan.
Thank goodness that some of the nicer people got to welcome you here first, you see just about everyone on here are really great people.
HOWEVER, in time you will come across ''Wombat'' most people get scared off when he is their first contact, he is so serious, and does not like people only other wombats
NAH only kidding Wombats a good bloke to, in fact everyone on this site is either TRYING to be a comedian, or offering sound and useful advice and information.
So once again WELCOME and don't be shy ok ? dazren

We've only been here a couple of weeks but feel truly among friends already.
For sure you'll have the same experience.
Welcome along for the ride.

NZ, NZ, I'm not sure what that stands for?
No Zone?
There are a couple of islands out East of us, maybe they could be NZ?
And there is a Little Island North of us, Oztrailera? Been there a few times.

Welcome Brenda and Alan.
You will enjoy the comments from the other members. Sometimes their minds wander off the subject at hand, however, thats life.

Welcome, Brenda and Alan. Halls Gap is a great place to stay - even better in spring with the wildflowers. There are some very pleasant walks, if you like walking. Some good drives, too, though I am not sure which tracks have been reopened after the big fires of a year or two ago. I do know that the Halls Gap to Dunkeld road is open again, and that is a very good way to head south and west. There is an ok caravan park at Hamilton that we have used as a base for a night or two. If you find you have some time to spare and need a sea fix, two excellent places are Beachport in SA and Narrawong in Vic.

Welcome to the Forum. I am a relative newcomer and have found this to be a wonderful web site and forum. Plenty of hints, encouragement, support, cheerfulness, etc can be found here. And it's great to actually meet up with other Grey Nomads even before you hit the road. Lyn
