Due to the ever increasing popularity of new fangled electronic navigation devices, I have heard it is hard to find one these days  8).

Some of them you can even pinch and rub with your thumb and index finger and it makes them expand and contract.

No you don't need a map to find your way around down here , if you just remember there is one road that takes you from the top to the "bottom"', with plenty to see and do in between, and so long as you remember there has been a few bush fires down here and we are a tad bare and dry at the moment , but nothing a good sprinkle wouldn't fix... >:D

P.s damn greens are trying to lock all our forests up at the moment, and can be blamed for a lot of overgrowth ;D

Dry? Think that dry spell just broke! Damn, will have to mow the lawn again!

Is there any other type of beer made in Tasmania?  ;D
Most likely cheaper to buy where you are as it always seems dearer here where it is made than in other states?????

Strewth. Can you manage the financial commitment of coming back to the mainland to organise and run the high country trips?  :laugh:

Best of luck Al, in the new town and the new job.

First working day April 15.  SHMBO and cargo scheduled for 4-6 weeks later. I have a shed to clean out between now and when I go.  Many trips to the tip and St Vinnies to come, and quite a few bottles of home brew to consume as well.  :cheers:

Welcome to Tassie and to UTAS!  If you are based in Sand Bay you will likely end up in my building with the rest of Corporate Services.  I'll shout you a coffee sometime.

I can head up to your joint on Saturday with the 8x5 and bring some home here in the shed for a few weeks.

I say few weeks, I have my oldest mate (40 odd yrs) who has 1/2 my fukin shed with his Shit stored in it - for 2 years now....
