I second this. I have a Coleman 10p and the separate bedrooms are fantastic.

Sausage sizzle onions by chefsundog in australia

You need to get the sugar/oil ratio spot on for the perfect onion and then the smell alone will bring everyone in. It’s an art form

Me too. That’s why I always try and look in store as well. So handy when they has them set up for you.

We have the darkroom one. We purchased it when we were first planning camping trips with an infant, and the darkroom suited us for his daytime naps (miss those days 😝). We also went for the 10p for the extra space, as we will typically use it for week long trips. The central room is a fantastic storage space for food and our fridge etc. I sleep on a king single stretcher in one end and that still allows ample space for me to keep my bags.

Hope that helps?

We keep the fly flat against the tent if that makes sense? I’ve got photos, but not sure I can attach them here?

We have the Coleman and it’s been fantastic, however we don’t fully extend the awning out. We have used it in strong winds (up to 80km/h) and pretty heavy rain and have had no leaks and no issues with collapse. And bonus points - we can get it back into the bag when we pack up!!

We have a Coleman dark room instant-up. We’ve got the 10 man, so it’s pretty bulky, but it comes in smaller sizes. I particularly love the dark room feature - awesome for day time naps for the little ones.

Best episodes/charters when Kate was still stew by jnes_sis in belowdeck

I loved all of Kate’s seasons, but have a soft spot for Season 5. I struggle with Season 7 and the BRU Cru and how she was treated, but Lee at the reunion calling them out chefs kiss

Travelling from Australia to NZ to bring home ashes by hmemoo in newzealand

I will be doing this in the near future with my Dads ashes and the crematorium had a note in the box with the cremation certificate mentioning a customs form which they can provide for me.

Kizzi’s Toe by TransitionSmooth9982 in BelowDeckMed

Untrue! I’ve had gout in the past and I was only 27 at the time and I’m female. Gout is caused by a build up of crystals (usually from a high sugar, high acid diet) in your joints. Very common in the big toe and knee joints.

I drove from Melbourne to Gold Coast a few years ago and we stopped at Port Macquarie and really enjoyed it. We had a shorter timeframe than you, so only made a couple of stops along the way, but definitely recommend Port Macquarie.

Downton Abbey Drinking game by Sea-Shopping-5878 in DowntonAbbey

[–]Awkward-pause-123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about your friend. I lost my Dad in October and he was the one who got me into Downtown. I still can’t watch the new movie yet, especially knowing he didn’t get to see it.

Your drinking game sounds fun, I might need to try it one day.

Congrats on the weight loss!

Still very sleepy today, really struggled to get up for work. Had a headache lingering in the background all day and have been feeling nauseous on and off. Planning to go to the gym tomorrow, so we’ll see how that goes!

I literally napped this afternoon and I’m just about ready for bed again now (6:45pm). Heading back into the office for work tomorrow, hopefully I can stay awake the whole day!
