    Default Nice jumper

    The Yarra River is the main stream running through
    Melbourne and is the subject of many jokes.

    I remember wanting to cross over the Yarra
    but the river was in flood. It was two kilometres wide
    so I got on my horse, rode back to Northcote so I could
    get a long run at it.

    I raced at breakneck speed, dug in the spurs, and the
    horse jumped.

    Did I clear the river?

    My oath I did. I made it easily and landed in Hobart.

    Took some medication Noel but it made me a little hoarse.
    (Not big enough to jump the Yarra).

    Therw's a drovin' story about a bloke that drove 2000 sheep from Finley to Hobart.
    When asked how he got them across Bass Strait, he replied....." Oh I didn't go that way"

    Couldn't you have just walked across it (no not suggesting you are the messiah) but it is mostly soil isn't it.
