G'day Sandra, My 'Saltbush Bill' comment was inspired by the Eric Jollife cartoons - I wasn't thinking of the Banjo Patersonm poems... Anyway, in my stumble-bumming round the Net, I found this page about the original Saltbush Bill. Ummm.... What a man! Back in my youth I could crack a ten foot stock-whip (just) "Roderick William Mills known as Saltbush Bill." could crack a 65 footer..... Mumble.... Don't tell Bob Bolton.... Awwww.... Shucks..... Much more to say.... A toast to the Ettamogah Pub and Aussie Cartoonisis... LOL - Sam
