We were met in Wagin, WA, by psw25 - Phil - as escorted to his place, just out of town. Great spot - he made us very welcome, and cooked us a beautiful dinner on the BBQ. A really nice man, contacted us because he couldn't make the get together in Seabird last week.
We talked all day, and into the evening, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
We are camped up in his yard for two nights, and enjoying the peace and quiet.
Thanks Phil!

Sounds great Jules, say hello to all for me.
I had a lady friend years ago who lived in one of the ex railway cottages in Wagin, she missed the big smoke and ended up moving back to a Perth suburb...did a lot of work on the cottage she had as it was pretty run down when she bought it.

Looked a nice little town when we drove through - a few closed shops though.

Always has been a bit of a dead spot Jules due to lack of in town population.
Beverley is a much nicer town to visit and a lot more attractions/shops etc.
