Sorry about the delay chaps. Wifi difficulties, but now sitting in Maccas Casino....errr....they don't have a Casino, but that's where we are.
Some pics from our Karuah stop yesdy.
Actually, the first pic is from our little detour via Wollombi to kill time before the winery opened so we could pu the bottle that got left behind last week.

All that was biting was this dopey Shovel Nosed Shark. Why dopey? This was at least the second time for this particular one to have a hook wrenched out of its mouth.....

Friday faFF TOD pics
Friday we drove from Coffs to Casino, which was really pleasant (Grafton-Casino road). From there we headed NW to Kyogle and then across the Mt Lindesay Hwy to Warwick and then Millmerran, where we are currently being superbly looked after Bushmill and Leanne.
TOD was nominated as 13:17 which found us on the Mt L hwy.

Warwick - St Mark's Anglican Church
I had a recollection from 30 or so years ago that Warwick had some pretty special architecture. It didn't disappoint, although we only had 30 minutes that we could spend there. We had been warned to be off the road around Millmerran by 5pm because after that the roos are a real problem atm, with the lack of available water. As it was SatNav Sheila was telling us that it would be 6pm arrival.
We saw exactly 2½ roos (the ½ was a loose sheep that didn't fully qualify, as it wasn't suicidally stupid, unlike the 2 roos).
The first building to catch my eye in Warwick was St Mark's Anglican Church. I was driving at the time, and I heard a reasonably urgent "watch this guy reversing out" from the passenger seat.

Warwick - The Post Office, and The Criterion Hotel
I think this might be the most special regional PO I've come across. Overall shots without cruddy cars and stuff are impossible, so a couple of detail shots. (check the sandstone in the round columns)

The Criterion Hotel. I didn't take any pics of the outside, as I knew that f had covered that. I'm sure he will post some if he ever returns from Mars.

The mason work in that PO is stunning so is the grain in the stone. It almost looks like it has been refurbished.
Some very interesting architectural design elements used, it looks like 3 distinct styles have been used. Most unusual.The person who never made a mistake never made anything

Millmerran - Mt Basalt
A fairly quiet day, not travelling to a destination. f, Shmiller and I headed out to Mt Basalt - just a short drive out of town. A short but tough walk to the top. Difficult in that finding somewhere to stand whilst holding my hats between my knees to take pics was really hard to do.

The Darling Downs is amongst the richest farmland in the country and Millmerran is at the western edge. I've just been told by Leanne that there is one place that has around 10 metres of topsoil - that's enormous! Apparently the best brains want to frack this area.Fracking idjits.
Terribly dry at the moment.

Ian, my mobile coverage in Millmerran is patchy. Responded to your SMS, but just to confirm that we are aiming to be there late morning Sunday.

No worries, Brett, I did get your text & saw the missed call - was out in the yard at the time. All is in readiness for your arrival, sirs. As long as I remember to put it on in the AM, there'll even be a fresh-baked loaf ready for our lunch. Let the yarns commence....
Cheers,IW

I just finished child-proofing our house - but they still get inside.
