I like your little town video's. Neat to see how things are down under. Keep up the good work.

Good morning James. Mate, as I get older, I realise that I have much to share, and a diminishing amount of time to do it in. And so I spend many hours each day extracting these places from my trip videos so that people who may not be long form watchers, and may have missed the original postings, have an opportunity to see what they missed 😁 It stops me from going out and tagging fences in boredom. 😂

Thanks Laurie. It's great actually seeing some of these places. A name on a map means a lot more to me, when I can picture it. Happily subscribed and look forward to watching more. 👍👍🇦🇺

Thank you Mort. Unfortunately, in the outback and in rural areas, there are more and more towns becoming just that, a name on a map. I'm currently trawling back through my trip videos highlighting these small towns for that very purpose, to give them context to the map. Cheers, Laurie.

Excellent presentation! Loved the information you presented so professionally! This could easily have been better than the Leyland Brothers!! Thank you for this very informative video. One day I will travel that way now. 👍🏼🇦🇺

Thank you, you are too kind. The Leylands showed us that it could be done. In my case, these videos were my diary of my trips, and I decided to share them... and got carried away. It's a passion I love, and an excuse to get out there and indulge. And yes, get out there and do it ... before it's too late. Tomorrow is not promised to us. Cheers, Laurie.

Did some aerial survey work based out of Tibooburra a bit over 50 years ago. We stayed in the pub, memories for a lifetime. Counter lunch was a Sunbeam frypan on the end of the 3 place bar, with days old meat pies in it. Juke box was a Philips record player. You picked your own lp from the C & W record pile. The wall was a (I believe) a painting by Russell Drysdale. The doctor (again, I believe) lived across the road. He had his light aircraft in a hanger in his yard, and taxied out to the airstrip to take off. It was a number of k's out of town, all dirt road. Tarmac started at the pub, and stopped at the next pub, 100 metres up the road. And the town would have been about one twentieth of its current size. Fondest memories.

I love these stories. There are 2 pubs there, and one was being renovated. I am hopeless, in that being a non drinker, I don't think to go into many pubs, and as a result, I miss out on seeing all the history that is kept within. I don't feel comfortable in a pub on my own, which is ridiculous, because as a Muso, I played pubs every Friday-Saturday night for years. But then it was bump in, play, bump out. Thank you for sharing. Cheers, Laurie.

Unfortunately, that's the story all over Australia in regional areas.

Nicely done. I saw the place, not your lunch.

Laurie what happened to your travelling companion?

@lauriekibblewhite 28 күн бұрын

I've had a couple of travelling companions over the years - 2019 and 2021 was solo travelling. We all have lives and responsibilities that dictate our travelling opportunities. 🙂

@@gizzmo667 Hey, that's not fair, asking me a question this early in the day😁. I had to stop and think - I've been off the road for three years now. Generally, I would ask at the information centres, and they would tell me where I could get it from, and often, you could fill up at the centre. I don't recall ever being stumped for water when I was getting low.Sometimes you could get it at service stations - you may be asked to pay for it. Cheers, Laurie.

@@gizzmo667 Yep, have to admit I've never got water from a cemetery. Keep in mind they use it for watering, and may be bore water or non potable ... just a thought with nothing to back it up.
