Came across this site the other day, impressive. I spent a terrific month in Oz in Oct 2003, staying with friends in Albury Victoria.
My holiday reminded me of how silly I was in 1974 not to emigrate...but I made my choice. I was impressed with Australia, ..the whole month was treated like royalty in the local shops. Probably just the Scottish accent! Managed to see a bit of the Gold Coast and Melbourne. The utter scale of travelling left an impression. Thanks to the bored cop-in-a-Falcon ( :cry: yuck) who booked us on the Wang Straight out of Melbourne just after I landed at Tullamarine. We were doing a criminal 120KPH at 6am on a Sunday morning. I am a die hard Greg Murphy fan and can't get enough of the V8 Supercar Series I look forward to hearing from whoever knows the Wodonga Albury area. I am coming back to Oz in 2007...and my goal is Bathurst to see Holden do it.....again...and again....etc! :lol:
