I have memories of having jeans that lasted years and years, a good thick denim. Now when one buys a pair of jeans, they only last a matter of weeks. However, ordering a pair from USA, made in Mexico, I have a pair of heavy denim, and $30 cheaper than the rubbish we buy in Australia. Same with shoes I have to b...

Central Victoria: Yesterday? 40C Today? 18C No bloody wonder it's impossible to acclimatize.

I've stayed at 'parks' on the Nullabor a few times, most recently two places in 2019. The combination roadhouse / motel / caravan parks each provided a place to park the van (drive through sites), an electricity supply and an ablution block. No water connection, no TV reception, no wifi (but one did ha...

Christmas Day starts off very quiet, but, as the day moves on with presents being used, Emergency has one of their busiest days of the year. So they have factored in extra medics for all the broken arms & other injurie...
