Well, a happy ending at least. Good luck to your granddaughter in her recovery. Kids are hardy and get there quicker than us old pack horses 😂. Dometic Gold Coast done a great job on the fridge. We recently bought a Dometic fridge for our van in Perth and the guys swapped the doors around in the warehouse for us too. Take a big breath, rest up and hit the road soon, love your videos and the cool way you present them. 👍
Thanks we appreciate the encouragement 👍. We’ve been very happy with Dometic after sales service they helped us out on a couple of occasions now Cheers Paul and Wenda
have been watching and loving your videos for sometime and wanted to thank you for the hard work you have put in and inspiration you give. keep up the great work.
Hi Paul and Wenda, wow, what a journey guys! Racing across Australia, dealing with family commitments, and caravan repairs - you’ve had quite the adventure on your hands. 🚐💨 And, the fact that you had to handle a family emergency with your granddaughter shows how life can throw unexpected challenges your way. Kudos for being there to help your son. Your vlog is an incredible blend of adventure and life’s unpredictability. I can’t wait to see more of your adventures. Stay safe and keep those amazing videos coming. Kind regards Corrie 😊👍
Thanks Corrie, it was quite an adventure getting back to the east coast and then when we heard about our granddaughter we were just glad that we were so close and could help out. We're looking forward to spending time with the family here over Christmas and see what we can get up to around here 😉 Cheers Paul & Wenda
I travel here in NZ in my Toyota Hiace extra HI TOP roof EX rental campervan,4 brth with sliding bunk up under the HI roof.Its too small but very compact and it only has a portapoti,but I love Freedom Camping.Over here,second hand/preloved campervans are selling for outrages high prices.Also Caravans.Everyones out for the top $.
Hey Paul & Wenda, you must have been sad to leave the NT after so long! Thanks for sharing your journey back to civilisation haha 😂 Your info on parks and pubs etc is always appreciated 😊 Glad that your granddaughter is on the road to recovery. We'll catch you next video. Safe travels, Lyn ❤
Hi Lyn yeah we loved the NT it is a great place. Thanks again for your kind words. Our granddaughter still has a way to go so we are glad to be here Cheers Paul and Wenda
Thank you 😊 We couldn’t get the fridge to chill. Apparently there is a defrost cycle in the fridge section that wasn’t working. They replaced the part and now it works fine Cheers
Hi Wenda & Paul. Loving your content. Could we please ask what are some of the best pub meals or recommendations you have enjoyed either on your travels or by state and as Paul is also connoisseur of a Parmies, are you dropping a vid best Parmies & schnitzels? Kind regards, Donna & Gav
G'day Donna & Gav, great question! The best Parmi was in Roma but we love Brunswick Heads Hotel, sometimes the location makes it seem better than it probably is. It would take a bit of thinking to rate them. We've had some great experiences and a few shockers as well, all over the country. Love the idea of a "Paul's Perfect Parmi" video 😂 Cheers Paul & Wenda
Hey Paul, Wenda couldn't believe you stayed at the same caravan park that I did in Emerald Queensland. Did you get a chance to get the fish and chips when I was there? They were fantastic. The good news in the end is that your granddaughter is all fit and well, and it's a bonus you got your fridge fixed. I'll see you in the next video. Keep up the great work.
Yeah it was a great park. We loved it but didn’t get to check out the fish n chips. The granddaughter still has some recovery to go, we just glad we can by e here for them We’re looking forward to your next video 👍 Cheers
Hi guys, love your videos and glad your grand daughter is ok. Just a quick question - what type of ground mat do you have and do you rate it? I noticed it on your ‘new annex’ vid but keep forgetting to ask. Cheers
We use Wiki Camps and a Facebook Page called "Country Pub Camping" to find pub stays. They provide plenty of info and you can search by location on both. Cheers Paul & Wenda
as an x truck driver your 97 k ph is very annoying to our 100kph speed limited trucks. i do hope you pull over so as not to be a annoyance to us trying to get our freight out
We use the iCheck TPMS and yes it is good 👍 we had to get a signal booster as we were loosing the signal. from the van tyres and then had to find a way to mount it. But since then it has saved us a few times We do have a video on our experience with the TPMS Cheers Paul
Good to see that parenting doesn’t stop. Keep up the great stuff, love your work.
PS…. Good to see young Shaun. Still looks like a teenager
Haha yeah doesn’t stop but does seem harder these days. I thinks it’s the 4 kids keeping him fit and active 😉
Glad you’re granddaughter is fine. Safe travels.
Thank you 😊 it gave us a scare!
Cheers
Nicely done folk,glad that your granddaughter is on the mend.Looking forward to your next trip.😊
Thank you, it gave us quite a scare she seems to be over the worst of it now.
Can’t wait to get into our next adventure 👍
Cheers Paul and Wenda

Hey whatever gets you out on the road is what it’s all about 👍 We noticed ever since Covid the prices have gone through the roof 🤦♂️
Yep. The Blue Heeler Pub is a fantastic spot. New Owners? Will have to get up there again
Yeah we loved it. The new owners were really nice, definitely worth stopping bye

Thanks 😊 We have a Cgear mat cgear.com.au
We think they are fantastic. They are strong, easy to clean and don’t hold dirt
Cheers Paul and Wenda
I have not seen your CB rigs you have in the cab,maybe you can tell us about them and their use for you thanks.
Yeah it’s one of those things you don’t use a lot but there have been several times where it has saved our butt!
When you are free camping behind a pub do you ring ahead to see if they do camping or do you just go into the pub &see if they have camping?
