I have joined The Grey Nomad Forums to share and get ideas of traveling around Oz.
Firstly during a recent trip around N.S.W. Outback we met some people that had a book
about pubs and if you visited the pub you could get the page stamped or signed,something like a pub crawl.
Would any one know of this book if it exists ?
Regards Keith.

We can't help you either but it sounds like a good idea particularly with the old historic Outback pubs. We recently stayed at the campground behind the Royal Mail Hotel at Boorooban NSW.
They still had the old Cobb & Co stables out the back. Great meals, country hospitality & nice place to stay.

Hi keiththerat, Remember seeing a couple of years back a book on iconic pubs of Australia. The title could be similar to my description. Can't remember where I saw it. But there is one somewhere. Sorry could not be of more assistance.
ps. Just google 'great Aussie pubs'

Thanks all, I have tracked down a couple of books, some quite expensive but I will do more research.

Don't know about pubs but the info centres out far western Qld were issuing passports that you had stamped at other info centres. After you had 6 stamped entries the passport was handed in to enter a draw. The prize is fuel to the value of the fuel dockets you could produce for purchases whilst you were travelling out there.
