The Leading Line August/September bumper edition
Hi Everyone, the past couple of months haver been so hectic I didn’t manage to get out the August edition, so I’ve combined it with Septembers issue, making it bigger than ever!
An added complication has been the lack of internet access here at the Shearers Quarters in the very chilly Mungo National Park. There is good news for those that are still to venture to this stunning location there is excellent wifi but only whilst standing in or very closely around the Visitors Centre (which handily is right next to our accommodation).
This region is spectacular – if you haven’t been I can highly recommend it.
