Thanks mate! Glad you liked it.

Thank you. Happy New Year to you too!

That sounds delicious, thank you 😋

Oh, have you activated the notification bell?

Yes, I’m sure almond butter would be the same 😊

Thanks for the tip 👍

Thanks for watching! We have had no issues with our weight, and we usually carry full water. We have everything we need to live in the van full time. We do carry our chairs, floor matts and camp fire in our tow vehicle. We did remove the annex and outside shower enclosure straight off the bat, as we were pretty sure we wouldn’t use it and didn’t want the extra weight. We did keep the anti-flap kit and have since purchased a privacy screen, (which we don’t use that often, but is all that we need). We also gave away the TV, as we are don’t watch TV. If we do want to watch something, we watch on our iPad, which is also what we do all of our editing on. Not sure if you have watched our ‘weigh’ video, but there is some very good information on there about weight distribution and we outline what we have and don’t have. For example, we don’t have a coffee machine, microwave, air fryer or BBQ. We live a pretty simple life. We have dress clothes, for weddings and funerals. Winter clothes and about 4 pairs of shoes each. You realise very quickly that you don’t need much to be happy. We wear the same clothes week on week and when something gets worn, you buy a new one and get rid of the old one. We are very tight on if something new comes into the van, then something has to go. Good luck and safe travels when you get there 😊

@@outside.normal Thanks for that legends. Hope you have a safe and adventurous 2025!

Thanks mate! Glad you got something out of it. Yes, getting another cassette is an option, thanks for the tip 👍

That’s awesome John & Karen, glad to hear you are happy with your van. It is a great model! Funny you should mention electrics, we were just talking about increasing our battery. Brenton has seen that you can get 400 A/h batteries of a similar size as our 200 A/h, so we are thinking at some point of changing this over. Thank you for the offer of looking at your batteries, but it’s not what we are looking for at this point in time. When the time is right, we may reach out to exchange ideas. Happy travelling 😊

We put a 620A/hr battery in the space previously taken by one of the 200A/hr's! Cost $5k!😢 it is also self-contained, so it means it complies with the new regs. Strongly suggest when/if you do this, you seriously look at your DC2DC and MPPT'S😊

Thanks for the tip. WOW, 620A/hr is fantastic, yes, it’s a lot more than just changing batteries over, thanks.

Thank you so much, we really appreciate it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Safe travels to you too and thank you for the anniversary wishes. 😘🎄

Cheers Greg, Debbie and Charlie, we are glad you are enjoying them. 😁

Our tow vehicle is a 2007 Toyota Troopcarrier with a standard GCM of 6800kg. We did get a GVM upgrade to 3750kg. We still have approximately 300kg spare payload on the troopy when towing. We did do a weigh video on both the van and tow vehicle if you would like more information on our statistics.

@outside.normal I needed the Lovell GVM and GCM upgrade to be legal . I have a 2018 Hilux rugged. The van I have is the MDC HR 16 EW

Same van as ours, they are heavy. We didn’t need to do a GVM upgrade, but we were upgrading our suspension and the engineers recommended to a GVM upgrade at the same time, which we did and we are glad we did, because we would have been right on the limit towing.

That is a great tip, thanks for sharing!

Hi, and thanks a bundle for subscribing. Great question, overall it’s pretty good, the doors open fully without a problem. When we are hitched generally we will open the back doors from the passenger side, then need to step over the A frame to access the fridge as it opens from the drivers side. This problem could be resolved by having a fridge draw or an upright fridge that opens from the passenger side. But it’s not a big deal. If you would like any photo’s or further info on our set up, we are happy to provide. Good luck with your plans and safe travels.

We know, right! It was delicious! 😊

Thanks Deb, it really was very easy and yummy. I wasn’t planning on making this video, it was a spur of the moment thing, glad you enjoyed it. Charlie was chilling on the bed. Cheers, B&K

You are spot on, even though we had nothing to do with it. How awesome is nature! Still one of our favourite beaches ❤️

Hi Mate, we have a map of what order to tighten the nuts and what setting to set on the torque wrench in our caravan info booklet. 😊

Thanks mate. We are not sure, we haven’t put out any nets. We have been told that they stock the rivers with fish and yabbies. We have brought some fishing lines, but have no idea what to do with them 😂 I guess we will find someone along the way, willing to help out a couple of novices.

Great to hear! Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you.

Thanks Deb, glad you enjoyed the video. We have been enjoying it in this area, lots of water activities, but we can’t wait to be at the beach again soon. Give your Charlie a big hug too. 😊

It's unfortunate to hear you feel that way. We understand that not everyone will resonate with us or our content, and that's perfectly okay-there are many other channels available to explore.

Thanks Anton, glad you enjoyed it.

We had a great day together, a shame it was just the day.

@@outside.normal A day of delightful memories ❤️

sure was, thank you x

Thank you. That is awesome, hope you have a great time there, we only just scratched the surface, will have to go back and do a bit more exploring another day.

Thanks Deb, it’s a real pretty place to visit.

Thanks, wouldn’t have anything to do with the guest stars by any chance 😂 we had a lot of fun making it anyway.

Good to hear you’ve had it for a few years and that they are a great company to deal with. Thank you for the tip, we now know what to look out for. Cheers.

Glad you are enjoying the brand too, so far so good for us. Thanks the tip on the drill clutch. Safe travels.

Thank you x

Sorry about that, we have been working on our audio along the way. Still need to invest in some microphones. I don’t know why they have the ads so loud. Kem’s been shaving for about 29 years, terrible eczema and does much better with short hair.

Thanks a ton!

😂 We have been well, thank you. We have been caught up in work again, not as much time to go exploring and filming as we would like.

Good advise 👍

It was a great experience 😊

Thanks Anton, Brenton asked “how much does he owe you for the wonderful comment” 😂

I will let him surprise me. 😂

😂

Hi Ray, Glad you enjoyed the video, I’m sure you will enjoy exploring Winton in more detail next time you visit. Arno’s Wall is super cool, it sounds like he was a bit of an eccentric and yes it would have taken many a weekend. Safe travels to you too.

Thanks 😊

Lucky you got in just before the cold snap. Mostly the weather has been awesome.

Thank you. You will love it! There is so much to see and do in Winton and surrounds.

Thank you and we agree. We live in our caravan full time, but you don’t need much to be happy.

Thanks! 👍

Awesome, thank you!

Thank you for your comments. It sounds like you have a good set-up and we are envious of your BBQ slide. It seems many travellers carry an extra toilet cassette and is something for us to consider. Thank you for your kind wishes in having our service work completed, I’m sure we will get there eventually. Safe travels.

Awesome tip, thanks. We will give it a go!

Thanks Deb. It’s great to be back sharing our adventures. The show and shine was a prelude to drag races the following day. Unfortunately we missed it as we were both working, but the show and shine was pretty cool.

😂 I’ve heard it’s a particularly cold winter down there this year. We will take your advise and stay up here LOL. Try to keep warm x

Hello NYC, we are stoked you found us, thanks for watching. See you on the next adventure.

Oh wow! I wondered if that was the case LOL. It is very strange to be recognised by people enjoying our videos. It is a pretty cool region and we still have a lot to explore. Thank you for watching. Safe travels.

Thank you, it's great to be back, doing what we love.
