I Feel Sorry for Some fellow Campers!!

Hi Michael,trip has been great so far, surprising how much these camper trailers will handle the wind!! Had a few days off and on with very strong gusts. Only pain sometimes has been trying to get the pegs into the ground for the awning, tent pegs dont seem to like quartz too much.lol.

Yer and you haven't washed you car yet. LOL You passed me on Kalamunda Rd again yesterday.

Yeah the car and the camper are a right mess at the moment. Got back Sunday afternoon and straight to work Monday morning. Washing is a job for this weekend, although I am just about ready to go again after neing home for a couple of days.LOL

Thanks Wayne, sorry if I'm teasing you! lol, unc

Surely you're not suggesting that justifies annoying the devil out of others who don't see the need to make a row and just want to experience the quietness (?) of a wonderful outback experience ...???

Happy days

George

Also you dont exactly need an oversize budget to afford an inverter these days. We only have a small 300 watt inverter in the truck that is now going on 10 years old. It was quite expensive when bought back then, but has done everything asked of it since.

Just as easy to boil the billy on the gas cooker as to boil the electric kettle.

JMHO

I certainly am NOT suggesting that justifies annoying the devil out of others.
The original post states: Maybe he hasn't heard of inverters and solar systems yet?
I am simply saying we all can't afford these extras.

Hey RFL
Have fun boiling a jug with your 300w inverter !!

Hey Signman

Not something I would consideer. As I said it does everything we need it to do, which does not include boiling the jug. Thats what I have a campfile / gas cooker for :)

Hi Willie, the stuff is still coming up. Where are you starting from first?

I will arrive in Cue on June 5 , stay there for 10 days and then go up to Newman to leave the van before starting an adventure out towards Hanging Rock .

Then around the start of July I will pick up thr van do ten days at Halls Creek , before heading home to avoid divorce .

What areas are you going to ?

Willie .

Hi Mike, our plans are......we dont really have any!!(well sort of) Currently around Laverton, and doing ok, so we wont leave just yet. After here we want to get over to the coast for some fishing etc, then out to Nullagine, Mrble Bar, and hope fully Halls Creek. Have some spots near Leinster we wish to follow up on as well. We will be around on the net so will keep in touch where we can.

Image Could Not Be FoundI can just imagine what would happen with you here Shakey! Na we just did a recce run thru the area first and we spotted the gennie outside all hooked up, hence why Jodes and I decided to move on a bit.Some good sites with trees where they are but we are closer to the gold anyway where we are now.Hope you are all well back there.This damn board hasn't been off the roof yet either!! unc

G`day uncle,
I am 65 and been going camping for most of my years, yet I seen something new to me a couple of weeks ago. A stall holder at the local Sunday market was about to try and hammer a tent peg into the very hard ground , a couple of us were watching and the interest was on the small size of the peg and the rock hard ground . Anyway he started the peg about an inch, then went and got a bottle of water and dribbled a little bit at the bottom of the peg , well bugger me if the peg didn't just drive straight in . So simple yet I had never seen it before or tried it. It won`t work on rock of course . Might be common knowledge to others but was new to me and those that were watching.
Anyway enjoy your trip
regards
Scrubcat.
