    Yep, much easier to list those that don't.lol.
    If you manage to get up this way I will take a day or so off to show you around. There are some great spots within a couple of hours of here that are well worth a visit. Those that are 4wd only I can get hold of a car to use if you only bring a 2wd.

    I'm familiar with travelling the back roads of coastal/central NSW with my mum/dad a long time ago.

    Should we go to Canberra (we've been there before)...?

    If you do definitely let us know. I'd sure like to meet you in person, and I'm sure Paul would like to catch up with you again (sure he's met you already?).

    How come no Melbourne on the list?.......

    Here's a quick Google map for Sydney to Melb: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UT...99b123&t=h&z=7

    I'll do the rest a little later but if anyone wants to add places of intertest, let me know and I'll add you as a collaborator on the map.

    Simon.

    Simon,

    I wasn't sure where to go in Melbourne, I was hoping you would give me some ideas.
