Re: Australian Trivia Only
Looks like more clues needed Cuppa. Have not got a clue as to where you are but that is probably just me.
Time is passing too quickly so live life to the full with your spouse/partner while you still have she/he by your side.

Monte Bello Islands in 1952? Forget that one to far away from your current location & it wasn't stimulated

Operation Blowdown, Iron Range Jungle, Cape York, 1963 ?
Very scary to read the destruction caused by Operation Blowdown.

Spot on Shirley. Macca, I am currently at Portland Roads, on the edge of the Iron Range NP, 45 minutes drive north of Lockhart River, Cape York.

And it seems other more sinister tests were considered. The horticulturist, John Pritchard, mentioned in this article is someone I have a yak with twice a week, when he comes to collect his mail. (I am the temporary local postie). https://www.abc.net.au/local/stories/20 ... 296593.htm
Your turn Shirley.

Hard not to love it Macca. Half way through a 5 week stay at present, but will be back up this way later in the year with our car & camper when roads re-open.

Re: Australian Trivia Only
I think it is Mick Doohan. FIM is Federation Internationale Motorcycle , I think.
And if I am correct can you have another go Shirley. We will be on the road tomorrow and don't know about reception.
