Not sure where to first, probably round in circles for a few days while waiting for my solar panel to be delivered, and popping into a BCF to buy my new camping chair.

Will find a few rivers to camp beside and chillout, relax, empty my head of all nasty thoughts and get my sanity back.

Dickabram Bridge would be good for a few nights, over to Hervey Bay, Bundy beaches, Gin Gin.

By the time Ive finished doing all that will head north to Rocky before heading south for the summer.

I need to get away from this place. Won't be in any hurry to come back

Have a wonderful time Marj. Take it slow and easy, and have a blast. Hope to cross paths soon.

Pack a bottle of wine or three and you'll be hunky dory in no time! Seriously Marj, take care, take it easy and recover your sanity at your own pace.

What's wrong with here, you can always update over there when you leave...so us solos are in the know first.

Have a great time...doing nothing much, make your bed, sweep the floor shouldn't be much more...maybe do some fishing along those rivers.

You deserve a good break...happy travels...Happy Wanderer

Safe travelling Marj, just take it slow and enjoy every single moment.

This time when you leave Biggy just remember your time is your own,what I would do if you wear a watch throw the bloody thing in a draw ...

Good luck and stay safe....

The last thing anyone should receive when they retire is a wrist watch I recon,after living most of our life to a time frame the last thing we should be doing is looking at a watch/clock.

Hi Happy wanderer, If you are looking for a free camping spot around Bundy there are not too many but there is a place on the Bundy Gin Gin road at Sharon around ten K's out of Bundy, Toilets and potable water but no power. Need to be early as it is quite small and only room for twenty or so vehicles. Well used by fruit pickers.

Good for you Marj, better keep to the coast it is very hot here in Isisford and down to Charleville. It has been 40 degrees here with 5% humidity making a very high fire danger, have put away the choofer.

Hope to catch up again,

John

Not happening now Bob. One of the reasons I'm getting away from here earlier than expected. Has let me down badly. Now I have to give Myrtle a clean and buy new decoration as had taken it all off in readiness.

Gypsyjo Welcome. Great to see you on here Joanie. Your new van sounds good.
Sorry to hear you haven't had your op yet. Frustrating.
Other members. Joanie and I met on another site over 2 yrs ago. Don't even remember what site.
We exchanged phone numbers but never met in person until I was down in Echuca July/August for the birth of my second grandson.
That only came about because Joanie rang me by mistake when ringing her friend Marg. We both had kept each other's number in our phones but never used them.
If it wasn't for Joanies mistake one late night we would never arranged to meet, Gloria Jeans of course.
Joanie too my suggestion to join the grey nomads and here she is.
A lovely lady too.

No Jules the oil change has not been done yet but have plans to have a service when on the Gold Coast.

The bus is going very well with no problems, all the work done in Frankston has stood me in good stead.

Will catch up later in mid December but where who knowsblankstare

John
