Bob, I love Binnaway, it's a great little town. I didn't realise you were from there. And it has a great overnight stop too.

Agree has always been a great place to stay along the river even better since they built the amenities, good small town.

George
She most likely did George so if she comes back and confirms I shall fix it for her.

It is Gravesend - for sure!

Boonoo Boonoo (near Qld/NSW border - pronounced 'BUNNY B'noo'!
Then there's Goonoo Goonoo (Near Tamworth, pronounced the same way)
And Gunyerwaraldi (near Moree, pron: 'GUNNY-worral-dye'!)
NSW has Come-By-Chance and Vic has Who'd-a-Thought-It.
And in Tas, you can visit NOWHERE ELSE!

Hmmm
I've been repeating myself.
Please ignore this post.

But if you're looking for PC taken to extremes, in the Flinders Ranges National Park you can drive across a creek signposted "No-Name Creek"

My road atlas identifies it as "Blackfella's Creek"...

Managatang in Vic always gets a laugh out of Margaret, but they have a great rest area with shower and toilet and a great pub across the road.

An elderly aboriginal lady drowned in a waterhole not far from Bordertown & Wolseley many many years ago.
Her surname was Goric. She was a Gin. (female name for Lady)
The swamp where she drowned is now called Pooginagoric. (poor gin goric)

Used to be a very good yabby spot until some idiot drained it to get a couple more acres of farmland.
