    While you are there, cross the railway head out of town a few hunred meters and turn into the farm house "Wimmera" on the left and have a cuppa with the Jim and Betty Sawyer. They will keep you entertained with stories whilst you wait for the tow truck

    I used to work for them many years ago - great people and have been in Dal since moses was a boy!

    It's a sign of the future, we can grin and throw a bit of good natured stuff about, but anyone who buys a modern vehicle, and not the diagnostic tools, better keep driving to school and back. I believe LR are not the only brand in this dilemma, Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
