Hi Just wondering if anyone has been to the Lake Eyre region recently. We're thinking of going over from Perth to check it out while there's so much water about. Any advice re camping grounds/sight seeing flights/what else to see/current weather conditions would be greatly appreciated.

Davids's friends are very upset that hecan't go, but what can they do. Two days later the three get to the camping site...

I am so p--------------ed off!!! Too many Yank words creeping in to every-day language. The last one to get me this angry, was CUP-CAKES, instead of PATTY-CAKES. A minute ago, DOMINOES' PIZZAS advertised Pizzas with AUSSIE GROUND BEEF!!! What is wrong with MINCED BEEF, or just plain old MINCE !...

Will I be able to go from the highway to the van park with all cups, saucers and false teeth still in one piece? Of course, any informatio...
