Tully

Tully

Here you go Steve, Jackie and the fam. They went and named a town after you guys. Not only that but they also added the Giant Gumboot as its main tourist attraction. It can’t get any better than that, surely?

Peter Taylors

Peter Taylors

This was a classic! Usually we’re easily impressed when we find the first, or last, name of one of our friends. But in this instance it was identical so we had to stop and photograph it for you Pete. This was in Emerald, QLD if you’re interested to know.

Spanner Crabs

Spanner Crabs

This one’s for Mr Spencer (aka Spanner). I thought you might appreciate this Greg.

Miss Lisa

Miss Lisa

If ever there was a sign so spectacularly synonymous with one of our friends then this would have to be it. Part way through a quick saunter in Canungra on Saturday morning, we walked past the State School. As we continued on we noticed some vegetables growing out the front and quipped that Miss Lisa [...]

Lindsay Bros.

Hey Little Bro, this one’s for you mate. We say this truck as we were filling up for fuel in Renmark, SA (a little late, I know).

Eddies Furniture

Eddies Furniture

Strutt Your Stuff

Strutt Your Stuff

Jonathan, you’ll appreciate that we had to go back and get this photo after passing this little store on the bus heading to Glenorchy, Tas. I thought it was very appropriate for both you and Edie and could be the start of the retirement plans – he, he!!

Captain Samuel

Captain Samuel

Levi spotted this one first. It was a little B&B cottage tucked away in Ross in Tasmania. He wanted to get a photo of it so bad that we told him he had to be in it as well. So, here you go Samuel – this one’s for you.

Matt’s Meats

Matt’s Meats

In Glenorchy, a suburb just north of Hobart, we came across Matt’s Meats. We didn’t go and check out whether the butcher was any good but we loved the sign. So this one is for you Uncle Matt.

The “Jocelyn”

The “Jocelyn”

In Dover, south of Geeveston and Huonsville but north of Southport, we pulled into a fairly dodgy carpark in search of some lunch. As we were getting out of the car we noticed this boat ahead of us – on a trailer – with “JOCELYN” written on its stern. So there you go Aunty Jo. [...]
