Isn't it annoying when you type something up and it disappears.
Well starting this again.....
Blowing a gale so yesterday was a day for touring......up and out early with wind in our sails we headed north.....
Greenough historic settlement was first stop.....a thought provoking meander thru 1800- 1900 Greenough, which had a police station, schools, churches , cottages, goal etc...all buildings left as they were with no tarting up....the gaol photo above....couldn't leave tom in there are he's the driver!...we were quite absorbed yet again in the hardships of life in those days in such inhabitable surrounds.....

So the Principality of Hutt River....around 600 k north of Perth....unique, it severed from Australia in 1970 declaring independence...this was due to overbearing wheat quotas......you have to drive off a sealed road onto the sandy unsealed road fir a while.....they have 92 prince Leonard who abdicated this year to his son prince graham....
visas are charged at four dollars to enter....the Principality has its own stamps, until recently you could obtain passports but now you can only be a non resident citizen....hey it might be the answer to Brexit.....
