It puts a thin coating on top, hard to explain. You will have to try it.

Yes, we did, had nearly 200mm over two days. Having a deck site was a real blessing. A few caravaners left early due to the amount of water flowing through the camp area.

We have set up camp at Gumtree Lodge, Howard Qld for a couple of nights to celebrate the New Year. This time we have gone upmarket with a deck site. It is lovely enjoying the breeze off the water and watching the turtles, ducks and water hens. They do forecast storms, however hoping they stay further west from us. Wishing you all the best for 2025.

Merry Christmas and safe travels over the holiday break. Hope you all have a wonderful 2025 exploring our lovely country.

Sounds great, I like the idea of a ferry across the river to the local pub.

Always enjoy reading your reports.

We have had two Kedron Vans both have had two Sirocco fans fitted. I think they are fantastic until they need cleaning. Not sure of what happened to the directions on how to clean them. With the help of Google "Cleaning Sirocco Fans" I found a couple You Tube videos. Suddenly the task of cleaning the fans became a pleasure. If you hate cleaning the fans, do yourself a favour and do what I did and watch the demo. I will no longer have to look at a dirty fan.

Hi Dan, I hope by now you have found someone to inspect the vans. Sorry can't help. Good luck with your choice. Clive

Welcome Marty, I can’t help you but I’m sure someone on this forum will be able to help. Perhaps ask at the Kedron factory as I think the timeframe would vary according to their workload. Sandra

Welcome to our group, lots of information and please if want to know anything, just ask on this forum. Someone will be able to help you.

I wonder what the ball weight is?

Welcome Cliff, hope you will have happy travels with your CP5 Compact. Tell us a bit more about yourself and where and when you intend to travel. Don't be afraid to ask any questions and someone will no doubt help you. Sandra

1x 250grpack of Salada Biscuits 200grms Butter 185grm (1 cup) soft brown sugar 1 tsp vanilla essence Generous pinch of salt 200gr dark chocolate chopped Turn oven to 180 degrees. Line a baking tray (approx 300x250cm) with foil then baking paper. Lay out Saladas in a single layer to fit the tray. The Caramel - melt the butter and sugar together in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally for about five minutes until it is thick and "gloopy". Stir in vanilla and salt. Take the caramel off the heat and quickly our it over the Saladas. Smooth with spatula. Put tray in oven for 15 minutes until the caramel has darkened. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes, then sprinkle the chopped chocolate over the toffee. As the chocolate melts spread it evenly over the base. (Some cut up pistachios sprinkled on top can be a festive addition). Allow your "Crack" to cool then snap into pieces - any odd shape will do and store in an airtight container in the frig. ENJOY!! Sorry, there is no photo, I made this recipe for the Christmas gathering at Ruberns Lagoon last week and it disappeared before I had a chance to take a photo.

Always laugh at this one as we have friends who travelled just like this. Thank goodness they have now sold their van, we are now a little safer.

Always enjoy your reports, look forward to your next travels. Take care
