G'day Gang, I've just finished making a frame for my Out-side Shower unit....... Made from Annexe poles, naturally. I have made this unit for bush camping, the Gas H.W.S. will be well away from the Thomson with the inlet hose either connected to the vans water tank, or will suck through a filter direct from a near-by stream, there is enough out-let pipe to lead to the shower screen from the H.W.S.

Hey Jim, Are you sure that Thompson only has one axle under it mate, geez I dont even take that much stuff with me when I work away and I set up a permanent camp mind you this time I have an annex so a lounge suite and a 50 inch plazma might be coming this time around plus a full bar and beer fridge as well. Where do I get hold of one of those water heaters buddy are they specifically jetted for LPG or what, Hmmmm could be handy one of those. Like I said before Jim I would love to be comin' with ya but I can see that you already have the car and van full and no room for me -- bug ger Anyway mate keep those tips comin. Carl

Hellllooooo kiwicarl, "GEZ" a 50" Plasma for the Annexe, Now that's carrying things a bit toooo far ;D ;D ;D You asked me where you would get a H.W.S. I ask you.........where do I go every Sunday morning "YEP"............. tripped over one there a few months back, Scored it for $10.00 Yes they are jetted for L.P. gas, being made for caravans they are ready to install from a regulated gas bottle, The one shown in the picture was one I scored from work, it was in the bin because the temperature control had seized up, Took me all of 5min to free it up after I got it home. ;D ;D ;D "HEY" tomorrow's SUNDAY hint hint I'm taking a load of junk to flog at Maddington tomorrow, So I will be up well before dawn (4.00AM) to get a spot, It has been chocker-block there lately and some goodies appearing.......getting close to Xmas. Might catch you there Mate. kiwijim $$$$$$$ ;D ;D

, Like your sense of humour Jim. That's typical country humour, like the country mile of "whereja say ya was goin?" Aw thet's just over the next 'ill." Problem is he didn't tell you the next hill was 100 mile away, and you've only got fuel for 50 miles. Cheers, Ross.

Howdy Ross, "Say" your comments about doing the Country mile reminds me of the time the Cheese & Spice & I were in Sydney. We were wandering around Kings Cross having a peak in all the weird shops that are in the area, I had the notion to have a walk across the Harbor Bridge, so after attempting to ask half a dozen people what direction to take and how far it was, an old Coot finally had the time to stop and tell us ........ "It's just down that road" Young man, Ya can't miss it, "YER RIGHT" If any-one knows Sydney, they will know how far it is on foot from the Cross to the Bridge,...... "IT'S A B*##^Y LONG WAY" Our golden rule now is......if we can't drive there, we don't go ;D ;D cheers kiwijim

Howdy Bobt,
"Yep" I reckon around the 4th of Jan ......give a few days here or there, and we're "outdahere"
Not many plans at the moment, except get across the sand patch pretty quick before the heat really hits, then wander toward Adelaide and follow the coast around the bottom and up to Melbourne.
So, there's going to be a motor home welcome in Tassie, I hope they leave a Wee patch of grass for the Thomson. ;D ;D
Sooooo, how about the Weeeee Austin ? what date will we see that arrive off the ferry ? ? ?
