Part 3- Australiana True Stories

About 1977, starting at Fitzroy Crossings main attraction ! The one and only attraction: The Crossing Inn Pub! My best Pig Hunting mate was visiting me from Collie, so we dropped into the Crossing Inn for a few beers. At Pub closing time we headed for a Camp site I knew of just past Geikie Gorge near Brooking Springs old vegetable garden to Chuck down our Swags. The Brooking Springs Vegetable Garden was located right near the Fitzroy River for a good reason, an endless supply of f...

Part 2- Australiana True Stories

I think it was a Saturday about 11 am from memory. At remote Cherabun Station via Fitzroy Crossing we were sitting around an empty old Telstra wooden Cable spool for a Table chatting in the Shed as bush blokes often do. From memory there were four of us, Stretch the Station Mechanic, Morry Young, myself, I forget the other blokes name. The conversation was small talk and amicable but I had work to do so I said see you later fellows.  My Government 4x4 was parked over nea...

Part 1- Australiana True Stories

Seventy two years ago we moved to this then isolated property in Rossmyone, surrounded then only by bush, snakes goannas and Wild Horses.Hard to believe now but true. My Mum and Dad bought this property from a lovely old Pommy couple in about 1954, although I have always hated Roses they had installed a brilliant terraced Garden, at the bottom of our Garden stood a massive Tea Tree on the apron of a flowing cool fresh water Spring my Dad often used to keep his Beer in. Opposite you can...

Watch out for inferior camping storage gear

With so much soft storage gear on the market how do you choose what is best for you and your setup? Generally it starts with sizing, what suits your drawers, what suits the space you have and then you decide on what style/colour you would like to go for. While on this journey you discover information like thickness of material, colour, style, features, the logo, price and who else has these items, yes this is the hard bit choosing between what is perfect for you. Why choose our gear? F...

2024 is here

2024 is here. Hope your break was good! So whats planned for Campers Choice? We wont be straying too far from what we do best: AUSTRALIAN MADE. Keeping this in focus will mean we limit new product offerings and ensure what we offer is viable and can be supported for decades to come. So if we dont offer something it will generally be for a good reason, either there is stiff competition from imports or the price is simply too expensive for us to make it here in Rockingham. But we are open to ...
