I reckon that it is something to do with the Brisbane line from WW2. Which is/was the fictitious line in the sand that the Govt of the day were prepared to concede to the advancing Japanese forces. Thank God they didn't, as just about everything in Qld that is worth anything is north of this line. Will have to do a bit of head scratching to figure out where though.
I was going to say Killarney Qld, but just had a rethink. So, how about somewhere around Tenterfield NSW, not quite Qld.???

Ah, well, at the risk of having to put up a picture, I think this photo was taken at Possum Park, north west of Miles. A great stop over.

Re: Australian Trivia Only
Hello Lesley, welcome to the thread. Putting up a pic is the easy part. Finding one that is just a little different is the hard part. Ray will be along soon to let us know if you're correct.

Re: Australian Trivia Only
Was it Cathy Freeman?
ps. Sorry for mis-spelling your name, Lesley.
At least you can't go far wrong with "Ray"...

"tanks" here---pretty sharp for early morning
Keith.
I'm now 87 years old, having experienced another birthday, and I'm still living in WA, single (gave up looking), white hair, no teeth, no money, no worries.
I plan to have another birthday next year.
