 Reg is happily making preparations for our next caravan tour. Reg had his specialist appointment yesterday at the local hospital outpatient’s department. Being a senior, aged pensioner, he never saw the specialist, just one of the student doctors, who did give him a good examination, and really just listened, no opinion given to us. I felt like Reg was just a training exercise to him and the appointment we had waited for had been a waste of our time. So back to the home remedies, the age old remedies for illness of good nutrition, chicken soup, my mum’s recipe for beef tea, nutritional supplements such as Glucosamine and anti inflammatory fish oils. Glucosamine is an amino sugar derived from the chitin of shellfish that is used by the body to support healthy joint structures. Both Reg and I take this along with the fish oil, omega 3 rich, capsules, when we experience joint pain. The most important thing we do to keep flexible is to walk and strive to be active. We both believe in the saying, if you don’t use it, you lose it. It is hard making the effort to begin walking again, after an illness, when you are a senior, it takes even more effort to overcome the stiffness and pain, but the reward for making the effort, a little more movement each day, is now showing for Reg Reg has done a great job working to reclaim his flexibility and fitness. Today he is happily pottering around outside with his caravan packing for our next tripJ. We are enjoying the trip preparation phase and I love seeing Reg getting a little fitter, every week. When he became ill back in early springtime, with whooping cough, I promised him he would be well again by Christmas. These are the other, natural supplements we both believe in, positive thinking and making plans for the future are the things that keep today’s gray nomad, living and loving life.

Hi Gray Nomad thinking of buying a Eco-Tourier would like some feed back from someone who has one hope someone can help. 01/10/2010 05:33
Len, Reg and I LOVED our eco-toured before we bought it, and although we are always looking at new caravan design we still LOVE it and swear it is the best van for our needs. We do have the top of the range, off highway, ensuite extra suspension, extra everything you could get, it was after all to be our home for half of every year. Ask for Caroline or Steve at Caravan Court in Springvale Victoria, tell them Kathy Shell from the gray-nomad website sent you. :-). Caroline looked after us well, we are VERY HAPPY customers and lol, they did not even know I would be writing up what I thought of the product and service on a web site. :-).
