Well you never know, we might be related in some way, my Mum was illegitimate and although no one had heard of her I have connected to and visited family there, one was my now deceased Uncle that is Mums half brother but knew nothing of her until I told him, he was 68 at the time.

We live about 160 kms south of Perth.

I do like Albany, a very historic town. Kalgoorlie is not too bad but it's many years since we lived in that region (in Leonora) and it is rather a long was from anywhere

Perth would be my first choice because I have family there and to be honest I have family in Albany and Kalgoorlie too that I have visited but don’t know those areas as well as Perth and I do go to the main library to look for my dead people, I’m usually there for a month, Australia that is not just Perth.

Anywhere in particular, ZZzzz, or just in general.

Tasmania is a very nice part, but I have to admit that I haven't travelled much in the North of mainland Australia.

Once all this problem with Covid has been sorted I want to go on the Ghan from Adelaide to Darwin

I love Australia and would go live there if I could afford to.

Mad Max is a series of Australian post-apocalyptic action films.
The series follows the adventures of Max Rockatansky, a police officer in a future Australia which is experiencing societal collapse due to war and critical resource shortages.

Sound familiar? :-(
Not so much the war - but critical resource shortages.

First they came for the loo rolls
Then the pasta
Flour disappeared................

:-D :-D :-D
