    It’s great you enjoyed Mataranka. Near the termite mound there is a statue of my great grandmother and her dog. She was Bett Bett, the Little Black Princess from the novel’s The Little Black Princess & We of the Never Never. Havent been to Mataranka since December 2020, can’t wait to return next Dry Season.

    That was so good using a good old fashion paper map to show where you are and where you are heading, so clear, do please keep that up. My first meal after being in the outback would be crumbed lamb cutlets and vegies at a good pub. By the way, your videos are brilliant, so down to earth, fun to watch and really interesting, many thanks for sharing your lives with us.
