Hello everyone, i am Gordon, Aka bugman,the manager is Wendy Aka dragon.

We have had 48 yrs together, ( can't seem to shake me off) we run our own business started from scratch over 45 yrs ago, now retired since July 2008, Moved from Melbourne to Tocumwal NSW and have established our home here, i enjoy my golf and a spot of fishing, do about 12 hrs a week volunteer at the golf club on the ruff cutters. Wendy is into sewing, aqua aerobics, and looking after her man, :D We have just bought an E900s 50th anniversary model Evernew 20 footer, Cruise master suspension,16 inch wheels, do 35 hitch. We have never caravanned before in our life, done a lot of home work, i am not known for my conservative thinking? EG hire a van see if you like it or not, we will go in open minded ready for some fun :D possibly some frustrations :roll: try to keep the mistakes to a minimum, reading posts on forums can be scary, but i tend to see the funny side of things, combined with a bit of common sense and logic ?? we intend to have ball, and really look forward to meeting different people on the road.

Bugman.

Welcome Bugman, so tell us the story behind the alias.

I agree with you, just jump in and have fun, what is there not to like travelling around the country?

Hi Gordon & Wendy, with your outlook on life and great sense of humour I'm sure you will be welcome every where you go and you will thoroughly enjoy the travelling life. You are setting the van up right to start by using the latest in solar panels and lithium batteries and having the clueyest bloke I know installing it, the van itself looks very well made, so you have that part right, just need to see if caravanning is for you or not. The trip to Walker Flat will be the van's first and your first free camping experience, I think it will be a great experience you will long remember and a great way to start out, looking forward to seeing you there.
