Chopping down the tall poppy is an Oz sport Ray.
All you need is the Melb Show, it's bigger, better and brighter.

Its a nice walk from
Bourke St Ray, if you come down when the EO people are there, it'd be good tocatch up and find out about your Outback Challenge experience, I was there as a red coat.

When your dogs is old and decrepid you shoot the poor bloody thing. Now you're not allowed to do that with humans, so what we do in Vic is send them off to QLD.
Queensland, God's waiting room.

Ray,
Its at Jeff's shed, also known as the Melborne Convention Centre, right on the river, right in town, right opposite Crown Casino, and there'll be a mob of EO'ites meeting up there somewhere, when Lynda gets off her backside and arranges it.
Cya there

Ray,
If it's anything like the Brissy show then it's more about
camping and caravans than 4wd. The major car dealers had stands but about 80% of the show was caravans and
camping stuff.

Hi Ray
Its at Jeffs shed again hope they make the
fishing show a bit smaller it gets a bit boaring looking at
fishing rods and lures lam happy sitting on a bank with one in my hand [
fishing rod] .
Hope you enjoy you stay in melb the shows a easy walk from the city centre the food there is expensive and tast like sh*t we usally pick something up at the casino before or after if you are there in the late evening walk along the river in front of the casino and check out the flame show.
