Correct. Penguin it is. The next clue was going to be, Tuxedo's are worn a lot in this town biggrin 

I thought I would stay in Tassie for that one. 

The mural is on the side wall of the lovely little bakery there.

 I couldn't remember seeing it, but don't think we walked up that far, your cold clue gave it to me.

Lake Barrington.....Kentish Camp, something like that anyway.

I have been there but don't remember the Jetty. knowing me, I probably saw the camping area and didn't look much further.


Sort of like today. I went looking for a Solar Farm at North Wangaratta VIC but do you think I could find it? Nope. Probably looking right at it at some stage.

I was there Feb 2014, maybe the jetty wasn't there then.

You go Radar as I might not be able to get back here for a couple of days. Trying a bit of galavanting.

 Hi Bill B, thank you, we have camped on the Forbes Common a couple of times now, enjoyed walking around town via the water way and back though after coffee. So one must of viewed the metal art work and then filed the memory away for later. I did look at the photo several times saying to myself where is that but in the end it was really educated guess.
