DALBY
(Preview)
Anyone thinking of staying in Dalby (Qld) think again, because of pressure from greedy caravan park owners the council has stopped camping in the showground, I suggest bypass Dalby and visit a town that values travellers.

Hot Off The Press Wee Waa/ Narrabri.

The other half went to Wee Waa/Narrabri for the weekend camping. He asked me to tell all that there were no mice, it was not cold, no frost at all. He slept in his sway with just one blanket. Watson's Bakehouse is still not opened on Sundays though, which was a big disappointment for them. It had become a ri...
