Waltzing Matilda

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited til his billy boiled:
"You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me."
So we packed up our matilda (Snowy) and escaped the caravan park...destination unknown. Down the highway we went, in search of a billabong and a coolibah tree.
Here I sit
Rug on knee
Happy as a flea
As I wait for my tea.
Hurry up billy

Aah! I love a shave

Let the steam escape
I want my cup of tea
And I cannot wait.



When I get older losing my hair,                       Many years from now,
Will you still be sending me a valentine,
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
(Beatles)

Mary River

Petrie Park, Tiaro

Just 50km down the road
Into a valley where the Mary River flowed
A little camp beckoned
'Come and stay a while'
Little Snowy winked approval,
'Now THIS is my style.'
