Me too, Jill! There’s usually something of interest to see and do, or a feature that makes the town unique! The bakeries are my favourite 😀

I’m pleased to say I have been to at least a few of these. Happy travels Red and thank you for stopping by my blog this week.

I KNOW I’m lucky, Joanna – that’s why I love sharing the wonders of Australia on my blog. Have you thought about visiting, or even moving? Have a look at http://lifeinaustralia.com.au/ if you are interested in exploring the idea a bit further! Hope you have a good weekend, my friend!

My comment gets a bit political now – we’ve recently had elections in Poland (October 2015) and I’m really not happy about the results. And I think the only place I’d like to live in, besides my homeland, is Australia. You’re really lucky you were born in such a great country 🙂

I wish I HAD been everywhere, Diane! There’s a LOT of places still on my ‘to do’ list – and the more I look, the more I find!! Stay tuned!

EVERYONE who’s been to Tas probably has a pic just like this one, Andrew!! Don’t want to know about the loo either, but I suspect because it’s sitting on rock, the composting bin (how’s THAT for euphemism!) has to be above ground? There’s a very interesting book about Goyder and the line released in 2014 by the Wakefield Press: ‘Nature’s Line George Goyder Surveyor, environmentalist, visionary’ by Janis Sheldrick if you want more information!

There’s a lot to be said for moving to Tassie, River! I’d LOVE to spend more time there!! There was once a plan to pipe water down from the NT, but I think there are logistical problems with a pipeline that long. I guess there is no incentive for any states other than ours to actually implement such a plan – and as our state government keeps telling us, there’s no money!!!

Useless Loop is my all-time favourite Aussie town name, Kozue!! It’s a closed community because it’s a salt mining company town with the Australian employees of Japan’s Mitsui Group (and their families) who work the salt mining operation. But I’d still like to visit because of the name 😀

It’s so funny how the list worked out, Kathy – nearly all the WA towns ended up in Part 2, nearly all the QLD towns in Part 1! I had the same feeling when I read your A-Z – reading your perspective made me see it all quite differently!

HAha, so many memories of these towns for me too, Iris! I’ve only been to some of them once – but they’ve all got something memorable! I’m glad I’ve inspired you to quit your job (or at least think about it) – it’s not quite the same reading a blog, is it 😀
