Mt Isa


Mount Isa is a good town with plenty of services available.

Kmart clothing prices would flog the ears off the east coast.

Favorite slab of beer is $8 cheeper than major outlets back on the coast.

Moving on friday & will catch up when we reach our destination on the Poper.

Cheers ,

J & L.

Ah, mining towns and subsidised communities have all the fun. There are benefits when you live out in the bush.
Derby in WA, particularly Woollies was much cheaper than Broome.
That country at Mt. Isa must be looking great out there after the wet season. It looked pretty good in October.
Enjoy where you are at all times.

Mt Isa - great town - stayed there a few times, plenty to see and do.  And mining towns are fantastic place to buy up - we had to get new tyres on a trip round the block a few years ago, we got five tyres for the price we would have paid for four in Melbourne.  That was in Tom Price - love that town too - has a real nice feel about it.

Hi J.C., just got back from 6 weeks going thru Victoria, beautiful place, all of it. When I got home I have found that the barra have been biting their heads off whilst I've been away, you should have stopped in at Boyne Is. Good thing is they are still hungry, my mate stopped in this arvo to tell me he got 3. Anyway, have yourself a ball at the Roper, I just wish I was there too!
