An elderly man in Queensland had owned a large property for several years. He had a dam in one of the lower paddocks where he had planted mango and avocado trees. The dam had been fixed up for swimming when it was built and he also had some picnic tables placed there in the shade of the fruit trees. One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the dam to look it over, as he hadn't been there for a while. He grabbed a ten-litre bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the dam, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.

AN OLDER LADY An older lady headed to the bank to make a withdrawal. She handed her bank card to a bank cashier and said, “I would like to withdraw $10. The cashier told her, “For withdrawals less than $100 please use the ATM.” The old lady wanted to know why… The cashier returned her bank card and irritably told her, “These are the rules. Please leave if there is no other matter. There is a line of customers behind you.” The old lady remained silent for a few seconds, then handed the card back to the cashier and said, “Please help me withd

A bloody good, old fashioned poem - 'nuthin’ like ‘em This is particularly for those who remember what it was like to have a DUNNY! The Old Service Station The service station trade was slow. The owner sat around, With sharpened knife and cedar stick, Piled shavings on the ground. No modern facilities had they, - the log across the rill Led to a shack, marked His and Hers That sat against the hill. 'Where is the 'Ladies Restroom', sir?' - and the owner leaning back,

Hi All, (Hi Bas N Caz), 😀 Really interested in this conversation. Our 2006 ATV with the 240lt vitrifrigo is in hopefully to be repaired at the moment. If they cannot repair we would like to replace with the 190lt Bushman but were doubtful it would fit? So can you tell us if it would fit? Thank you, new members, Ross and Leah

Hi Bas, Thanks for the info regarding Kedron and the RPD-218's. We have decided to go with the 190L Bushman fridge Cheers Rob

Hi Rob Suggest you contact Kedron as it has some Dometic 218s in stock as of a few days ago. Cheers Bas

Hi All, I have a split corner on Fiamma Vent 50 - Roof Vent Lid (pictures i can send) I was looking to just replace the lid part It is the type that pushes up on 2 arms from inside Any ideas on sourcing a part ? is that easy enough ? I was looking for a how to video ? Thanks for any advice Ken

Hi Ken I’ve just Googled the Fiamma Vent 50. There’s a fair bit of information there that might help you. I hope you find the right information there, or try a local caravan repair place. Looking at the above photo and as a quick fix, try and put a piece gaffa tape on the inside or the outside for that matter, and then cover the outside area with a weatherproof sealant, moulding it into the required curvature. It might be a quick fix until you can source a more permanent solution. Cheers from Pete.

Has anyone had problems with brake controller constantly flashing red. Van is XC3 (4years old). Originally towed with Prado fitted with TowPro and no problems at all. Upgraded to 200 series last year which was fitted with new TowPro Elite before delivery. Has constantly played up. Thanks

Hi All, We recently purchased a 2009 Top Ender (KC01012) which so far appears to be in pretty good condition (except for an annoying leak in the rear bathroom lift up basin system!!) and are currently getting it ready with additional solar etc.. for some local QLD touring initially, and then hopefully for a lap of Australia next. Our past interests have mainly been sailing, fishing, diving and travel and we recently returned to Brisbane after spending three years sailing our yacht (Island Pearl) around the world from Brisbane and back again after experiencing some exotic and amazin

Hi Colin & Lauren, Welcome to KOG, sure you find it a pleasant change to be able to get out & walk around your new (to you) land yacht. Hoping to meet you one day soon, somewhere down the road. There is lots of information on these pages, if you cant find what your looking for....just ask! Travel safe. Tony

Hi all, Have made many phone calls and found that Dometic do not make the RPD-218 any more and none to be found in Oz. Dometic now make a new model that will not fit into the same hole, it is about 100mm taller and much thinner. Thanks Dometic, just what us older van owners need!!!! At this point in time there are no other fridges available in Oz that I can find due to the Covid problem holding up importing goods. I found that Bushman make a 190L DC fridge that will suit, but alas, they are waiting for parts to arrive from O.S. W

We had booked to go caravanning with our friends in March and had to rebook. So we are now going on 21-24May and if you are not doing anything and want to join us please check out the park and make a booking and come along to Bigriggen near Rathdowney. Unofficial get-together

Folks I live in Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne, Lilydale and it is time for my van to be serviced any recommendations as to who can do this plus check the senders in the tanks and the latch on one of our drawers? Thank you

Imagine living in an apartment in Canberra. One doesn't have space to store the caravan. A friend just over the border in NSW offers to house your van. Should the van be registered in ACT or NSW??
