Bundaberg Rum Distillery Or Bond Store
I never realised last week when New Life On The Road visited Bundaberg Rum Distillery that they are actually called the Bond Store. But after taking a tour of Bundaberg Rum Distillery or Bond Store it makes sense! Bond Store Each Bundaberg Rum is kept in huge VATS on site. And those VATS…

The Bundaberg Barrel
Today New Life on the Road took a day out from homeschooling (well the book work at least!). I took four of our five boys to The Bundaberg Barrel – Bundaberg Brewed Drinks. The Bundaberg Barrel Upon arriving at The Bundaberg Barrel I was blown away by how friendly all the staff were. They greeted…

My Diesel Injector Pump Repair
Have you ever spoken to a Diesel Mechanic about repairing a diesel injector pump? I have. In my case it was the CAV diesel injector pump that is on the Bedford 466 engine of Rose The Lifestyle Challenge Bus. The problem that I had was that it was leaking diesel everyware whenever I started the engine. I…
