I was told the little bobcat excavator was 2 weeks old when they sank it in the mud. Not a single component appeared to have been rescued off it, I reckon it probably still had the battery in it. Your taxes at work.Quote:

The definition on Google Earth is not quite good enough to make out the bloke with the crab.Quote:

It would be very easy if you were there as it was a memorable weekend.

Cooma.
Yeah typo 281.85. Those photos were taken in 2014, the images on Google Earth must be around the same time, I reckon there'd probably barely be enough sticking up to stake a tyre on by now. The Banana well mob had signs up all over the place saying they wouldn't pull you out if you got bogged. Top spot.Quote:

Correct state but wrong location and, assuming you were thinking of the 60th Anniversary, wrong event.Quote:
