Eric,

Lysterfield Lake is a wonderful spot.

Not sure how central it may be for all but it is worth the drive.

Cheers,

Jim.

I'll '3rd' that, or maybe Jells Park might be a tad more central.

Whatever, let us know and we will be there

Glenn,

I'm glad you said around the corner from you.

Had you said just behind you, I may have been concerned.

Not that there would have been anything wrong with that.

Jim.

Hi Eric sounds like a great idea, running out of weekends though, esp with all other commitments....let us know the details and we'll see what we can do....possibly the 17th or 18th the only dates for us......

you're right its not the bong I'm on,
nor is it the "Order of the Thong"
However as you rightly see
I've already had enough for three

And Still I wonder of the Proserpine Pig
thats started us on this prosaic jig
I still know not of which you speak
That Pig, indeed, is up the creek

I know you think I seek the pig
The thing I seek is just as big
its also alone on this here earth
and I shudder to think just whats its worth

A tear escapes as I contemplate
for not to seek, is never great
The pig you say from Proserpine
May be unique, but will soon be mine

For after said pig I have a quest
I've tried Mayfair, they said its best
I said Ham and they said pork
To claim its best is idle talk

I seek to counsel your cyclops source
To get his name I shall use force
Or play upon your nature good
I cant see the forest but for the wood

this final quest i take upon
myself, the time is almost gone
I fear the effort will be not worth a zot
for mayybe the name would be just "."

that must be an old article lilly.lol.
this is from a google search.

Located around 10km south-south-east of Bendigo, the centre of Victoria might be considered to be on the steps of the Mandurang Uniting Church. No longer in use, the church sits on the site that corresponds with centroid calculations from a number of different organisations, including Geoscience Australia, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DNRE), and the Department of Geospatial Science, Royal Melbourne Insitute of Technology (RMIT).

Jim is correct. The 4.6ha Mandurang property owned by Brian McColl is for sale. He has marked the centre with a white cross. The Council will erect a plaque if the new owner develops the site into a tourist attraction. oh the price...Brian is asking $500,000

Gooday mate,

Only three weekends left before Xmas. I am free this weekend, away camping with the Diamonds next weekend, on call (but free to have a bbq somewhere close) the next weekend, then it is Xmas.

Suggestions for Lysterfield or Jells Park sound great, but you had better make a decision soon mate, not like you to procrastinate...hahahahaha

Cheers
