How many pizza joints can there possibly be in Tanunda? 
One thing to remember if you are visiting South Australia: do NOT hire a car in Vic with Vic plates and head over the border. The natives will not like you and will subject your vehicle to cruel and unnatural punishments, especially during the winter (footy) months. 
Do you often take your guns on holiday as well?
With someone like Martini, I don’t think that would be a loaded question actually. Even guns like to see new sights occasionally.
Oh gawd that was corny. Somebody, shoot me now!!
I buy less population and a different view of the Milky Way, but I live in inner Sydney…so…less light pollution? :dubious:
Nah.
Cheers,

The difference between the night sky in inner Sydney and the night sky if you head west for a few hours is, well, night and day.
If I was going hunting, then yes, I would be taking my guns on holiday.
However, I have no desire to visit WA, armed or otherwise, because their unreasonable attitude towards legitimate firearms ownership tells me the state is run by… Communists. Or someone bad, anyway.
Seriously though, it’s my own personal form of boycott. Now, if WA announced tomorrow that their gun laws were coming into line with everyone else in Australia, I’d consider taking a holiday there. Until then, New Zealand is closer (and cheaper), and I don’t have to pay for accommodation there.
As an New Zealander it is both highly inappropriate and possibly even illegal to say good things about Oz ( )I am a rebel and I will risk all for you.
My favourite place in Oz has always been Sydney. It is beautiful city with lots to do/see. Fellow Kiwis seem to shun Sydney in favour of Brisbane or Perth though (immigration to Brisbane is huge). I have an Uncle who has lived in Brisbane for about 10d years and loves the place and an ex-neighbour who has lived in Perth for 6 yrs and swears it is the bees knees.
Sydney is gorgeous and well worth a visit But more importantly NZ is very cool sad, sad, case of cross Tassie rivalry.
Can you pass on the memo then to all the bloody NZ’s who have made Melbourne their home…obviously they got lost on the way to Brisbane or Perth.
Stupid Kiwis, can’t read a road-map to save their lives.
I’d forgotten about Haigh’s! Their chocolate almonds are very nice indeed, although on the whole Haigh’s don’t justify the cost. I’ve nothing against paying premium prices for things that deserve it, but Haigh’s are way overpriced generally speaking.
Pizza in Tanunda? Hmm, intriguing! I don’t go there much, but I’ll keep an eye out. 
Mmm…pizza…
grin There’s definitely an element of truth in that!
Generally I prefer it when the Vics come over in cars with their state plates on though:
[ol]
[li]The state motto above the numbers either says ‘On the Move’ (which is cute and accurate) or ‘The Place to Be’ which is kind of humourous. I can’t think if they’re both Victorian phrases or maybe one of them is Western Australian. Either way, I think they’re kind of cute when not in their own State.[/li]
[li]It makes me cut some slack to the person driving 100km/h in front of me instead of 110km/r. (Otherwise I do tend to get a wee bit agitated.)[/li][/ol]
Western Australia is a beautiful state. I visit there a few times a year though sadly, I rarely get out of Perth. A huge state, to explore it fully would take a very long time. Perth and Fremantle alone are worth the visit though.
It was a chicken pizza with a white sauce instead of a tomato or barbecue sauce base. Fan-tas-tic! The pizza place was just around the corner from this bench (yes, we had been doing winery tours. Why do you ask?).
errr… that ain’t right. In fact my big complaint is they are pulling way too much of old Brisbane down.
mm
Have you been to the Brisbane CBD lately? I was there on Saturday night, and it’s looking very… dated, for want of a better word.
