Agreed. But just get rid of them? We should see if we could trade 'em
for, say, Singapore, Rio, and ummm... trying to think of another big
city I've liked...

Sydney. Oz seems to think it's perfect.

It's pretty bloody close as capital cities go.

Great. We'll take it. How does Miami sound in trade?


We'll give you Ceduna for Miami.


No we bloody well won't, you damn' ex-Sydney rat parasitising the
poor green Tasmanian innocents.


*Smirk*. Thank you for your tax dollars supporting my lifestyle. Oh
wait, you're in SA, another parasite on the body politic......... at
least we have forests and potable water.

It'd ruin the fishing.

Might offer Marla Bore roadhouse, though.


It's *that* bad?

I have un-fond memories of Ceduna & Thevenard. Of course it might have
something to do with spending 4 weeks in the Bight and one day ashore,
getting tossed out of the pub well after closing by the local coppers
and then finishing off with Bundyback aboard ship. We left one of the
trawl doors behind off the pier - skipper was a bit under the weather,
too.

You'll be pleased to know that the CCA treated pine gunwhales are
working out just fine. All in all it would have been faster to build a
new daysiler but I knew that before I started.

Seen Jeff Gilbert's Cataphylla design? Put it on your project list for
the future. Jeff's got sufficient sense to move to Tasmania too.
