Gees, kiwijim...since when does 'Muckadilla' sound like 'Bundoora'?? Are you getting too many gas fumes in the new motorhome?  Now Doug... Borumba sounds a bit like Bundoora, and it's about 150kms from Beachmere, and it has a dam, and the photo on Google looks a LOT like your photo... So my guess is...ummm...Borumba Dam!! ;D ;D |

YAY Al you got it and just in time too, I'm heading away for the weekend in about 15 minutes and thought I would just check out the forum before we left! So over to you Al catch you all next week. Maybe Al has some WA pics for you Jim, I've never been there (yet) so I can't help you out! |

Andy is correct. ;D Big Lizzie IS a monster, and makes your eyes pop when you first see it as you are driving along the main road. There's quite a story to it's history, some of which is in this information display...  Red Cliffs is about 20kms south of Mildura in Vic. Maybe someone from Tassie or Sth Aust would like to have to go with the quiz. Haven't heard much about either of those States in this thread. Any takers to show us a bit more of those two areas?? cheers, Al. |

Shane!! SHANE!! WELCOME BACK!!! ;D ;D There's been no competition in this quiz ever since you left us a few weeks ago. It's just been one win after another for me, so it's good to have some serious competition back in the game. Got any photos of Tassie or Sth Aust you can try and trick us with?? cheers, Al. |
