Before we left home I replaced the external shower on the outside of the Bushtracker. It had been leaking for a while leaving a stain on the aluminium checkerplate. It was a horrid job because it was very hard to reach the fittings that had to be disconnected.

When connected to a town water supply we noticed a very slight leak at one of the fittings I had disconnected and reconnected. I bought a couple of spare fittings and lengths of hose from the caravan shop at Moonbi on our way here.
I replaced the fittings and discovered the problem was at the end of the hose. I need a straight connector so will have to go back to Moonbi after Easter. In the meantime I cannibalised another fitting from a suction hose we have never used. This at least stopped the leak but we cannot use the outdoor shower. Blue won’t mind as that is what we use to bath him.


Many more people have arrived at our caravan park. It will be full for next week but our two caravans, one large motorhome and one small motorhome have created a private enclave.


One of our friends gave Tilly this bag to play with. She loves being in a bag. She and Blue have spent most of the day outside on their leads or in their playpen.

We drove to Tamworth this morning to have a walk and breakfast. It was so busy the best option we saw was a 30 minute wait for takeaway coffee. I settled for a quick MacDonald’s coffee!
