Wothahellizat: For sale
That's right, Australia's largest and weirdest off-road motorhome is for sale! Sort of.

During the course of this diary we had several people ask if the truck was for sale. It's not uncommon, although I'm sure most people are just joking. One fellow however was very interested. Even after we implied what we thought is was worth to us, he still gave us his contact details.

Which begs the question, how much is it worth to us? Well I'm not saying here, but almost certainly more than anyone would be willing to pay. It's not really the three years of my time that I'd want to recoup, you can never really do that, it's the prospect of spending the next year or so building another one that petrifies me.

Still, almost everything in life has a price, therefore, like most things, Wothahellizat is for sale. It's just not on the market.

Vale: Campsites index
You may have already noticed that the campsites index is no more. Regular readers may also have noticed that there has been very little activity in that section for several months.

I've killed it for two reasons. Firstly, the maintenance, it's a very time consuming section to maintain and I already spend a large part of my days working on this site.

Secondly, I'm not sure I want to tell everybody about these sites anymore. There's been a lot of controversy lately about various publications highlighting camp sites, only to have them overrun by hundreds of campers, most of whom are not self contained, and who therefore leave a mess of one description of another.

Also there's been cases of people feigning breakdowns to overstay in areas.

A case in point is the very first site I had in the index, at Tin Can Bay. This site was closed recently for both of the above cited reasons, ie. over crowding and over staying.

I could of course password protect the pages involved with, for example, the same passwords used by the CMCA for their site. But there's still the maintenance aspect.

So the campsites index is gone and I won't be openly sharing the good spots anymore, at least not on the web. But if you catch up with me on the road I'll certainly tell you where to go...and camp.

Till next time then, and remember,

don't dream it, be it!
