Just seen report that a femail French tourist climbed Ayers Rock today and proceeded to do a strip tease on the top. Is it too much to hope that she may well be escorted on to a plane early tomorrow with a one-way ticket home? Cheers, Tony

Those GPS thingies...

Travelling all over in our little van, we found ourselves at Millmerran Qld. Next stop was to be Esk. Wanting to miss the heart of Toowoomba, we placed our trust in our TomTom GPS. Good heavens! If anyone is in the area and you want the ultimate challenge, try punching Millmerran to Esk into your GPS....
