Anyways thought I’d give it a burl coz you made me remember me mum’s ol’ Auntie who had a pet tarantula and a pet magpie and a baby Joey in a gunny sack.
She and the cousins lived on an ex Cobb and Co station out the back of Lake Cargelligo ( out Bourke way) and the auntie used to say “if ya don’t lob up an have a go you ain’t ain’t a ridgy didge Australian.”

And the cousins used to say there was a bunyip in the dam.
Fair dinkum.
There was a peppercorn tree, and a milk shed, and turkeys and pigs and chooks ....and a meat shed down the back yard at the other corner to the dairy shed.
And the flour was in a sack and had weevils
The toilet paper was an almanac on a string, and the toilet was in a little room at the end of one of the verandahs with a metal plate on the bottom and a handle to wind it round.

And we all lined up to bath in the same six inches of bath water - eldest first.
By the time it was my turn, the water was red brown as the dirt outside.
