I live in a little place called Levin which is approx 100kms north of Wellington NZ.

My rig is a 6.65m Leisureline caravan with a rear bathroom, 170litres fresh and the same size waste water, ASC, Truma heater, suburban HW, fixed queen bed (east/west), and weighs 2740kgs fully laden on the road; and my tug is a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd, photo on the header of our travel blog www.romanyrambler.blogspot.com.

I had trouble trying to load a photo on to a forum post.

Cheers

Hi Bruce

Seems to up and working again !!

On www.nzmotorhome.co.nz anyone can join then post immediately without verification. The moderation team are pretty vigilant and deal quickly with anyone from Asia trying to hawk dodgy medication or cheap electronic goods. They are quickly banned and have their IP address blocked.

PS I think I have worked out what the problem was. I mentioned in my post the name of the dodgy little blue pills that the spammers often attempt to post. You must have some sort of block on that name ;)

Cheers

Ran into the problem with the V word a while back. It just won't let you post on the forum or via PM. Took a while to track down what the problem was by deleting one word at a time until it let me post :twisted:
