I know it isn't spelt right, but that is how it is in the new EO
Places index. So that's what was required for the competition.
I was doing a google search to try to find if there was another name for the place I didn't know and remembered the '
places' facility. There it was, spelt with a mm.
Sorry guys, I get the 2 stubbie coolers this time.

That;s ok with your MM what gets up my nostril is when i hear ppl talk about "Cooper Pedy " correct is Coober, the other is in SA ppl say Nurioopta when in fact it is
Nuriootpa
Talking about caves though, have you been off to the left to the
Barry Caves over in NT on the Barkly, I would not go into those holes [ did once years ago ] I didn't know much about King Browns then.

Bugger - spelt wrong
dam that is not very good is it. Sorry everyone - I go by what is supplied - maybe I made a typo. I will
check on Monday when I am in the office. Hey Norm you say you found it in
places - You should not be able to see the place whilst it is loaded in the comp. Can you just confirm this for me that you were able to see the answer before the comp was answered?

Oops - I checked and I made a typo - Very sorry to those that got it right with the correct spelling. Norm still interested to know if you were able to see it before the comp was completed.

Oh copy and paste of the first error - great. Thanks Richard I will get to this one on Monday this one takes a little longer as the pics are stored differently and I need to adjust some other info. Not so easy on my lounge room laptop - much easier on the office desktop. Thanks for being picky - I need it on this one .

David, in
places I couldn't see the
pic or any details, just the title 'Commooweal Caves'. That was enough to prompt me to put in an entry with that spelling.

You can have a drink in both hands, Norm. Congratulations.
Knew that it was
Camooweal Caves, as had been there a couple of times last year, and had a photo taken from almost the same position. Then thought it would be under the name of the actual
cave, Great Nowranie. Think the other smaller
cave is called Little Nowranie.
Supposed to a few King browns down these as
well.
hooroo...

Hello Bob, I'm hopeless at that competition - maybe I should 'google' more or something. Say, yesterday there was 3.34m at the Lakes and today the Lakes have disappeared (maybe the automatic gauge is underwater LOL). Did you manage to get under any of the storms?

Well done Norm.
I could not work out for the life of me why everyone, including myself new the answer but the computer refused to cooperate. In the end I just gave up and waited for an answer to float to the surface.
Now all you have to do is get something to fill those stubby holders!
Cheers, Patrick

What do they say!!! To err is human, and in this day and age there is nothing wrong with being human!!!
Seriously, I am glad that one is over, I even tried spelling it wrong by dropping an 'o'. Bugger.
Congratulations Norm C, and let the game begin again!!

I'll think of you all and have a chuckle on my next trip with a coldie in the stubby cooler.
Glad everyone is taking it in good humour. I know I am.

Norm,
They will be sent out to your members address automatically - You can just sit back and they will arrive in the post. if you need them to go to a different address or something then let Jackie know jackie@exploroz.com.
I am glad someone answered it - I will now have to find the little hole that gave the answer away and I will also have to double
check all the current comp spellings.
