I think from memory there is a sign outside the bp at Eromanga in western QLD saying something about being the furthest point from water or something of those lines. Could be wrong????

Eromanga is a small town in Southwest Queensland, Australia. It lies on the edge of what is called the Eromanga Inland Sea, which existed in the Early Cretaceous. Its claim to fame is abundant oil wells, and opal mines, and of course many pioneering cattle and sheep property owners that came and took up land in the 1860's. The name of the Town Eromanga goes back as far as about 1860. Eromanga is also noted as being the town in Australia located the furthest from any Ocean.

Interesting web site TR.

While we are on this interesting facts & fiction quest :-)) Could someone remind me what the name of the 'other' territory is - the one that lost out to Canberra.
