June 9th, we packed up this morning and drove to Dubbo,
with a short stop at Gulargambone, to get a photo of their flying corrugated
iron galahs and have a quick look around Town. I had an Uncle on a farm, not
far from Gulargambone, when I was in my Teens. We booked into the Poplars
Caravan Park, in Dubbo’s CBD, for a 3 night stay and set up. After lunch we
drove up to the Orana Mall and had a look around. We have been to Dubbo quite a
few times, as Val’s Mother and
June 10th, The Manager at our Park recommended
B&C Caravan Service as the best place to buy a replacement door handle for
the Van. So I went to get the parts I wanted and he was out of stock of handle
assembles but had a box of old handles and was able to sell me the inside half
(which had the handle I needed) for $15. I found out later that the new
complete door lock assembly sold for $120, so I was thankful that he was out of
stock. I went back home and rebuilt the door lock ass’y from all my bits and
now it works perfectly. Val walked across the road to the Coles Arcade and
continued along the main street, having a bit of Retail Therapy, so when she
wandered back home at 5pm she was one happy girl.
June 12th, We packed up and moved to Bathurst,
for a one night stay, before moving on to Sydney (Rouse hill) tomorrow. There
is only one Caravan Park in Bathurst, the Big4 Panorama Holiday Park and we
were lucky to get put on a site long enough to allow us to stay hooked up, so
we will get a quick start tomorrow.
