Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Kay, Is that 'Summer of the Seventeenth Doll'.
If my memory is working correctly we had to read the book for year 10 or 11 English in high school.
That's the answer, alright. The Ray Lawler play.
You pipped me by about two minutes...
Regards & God bless,
Ray

See how this goes. Maryborough Qld is famous for being the home of a famous author. Who is it and what was the main characters name in their book?
Bonus point, what is the authors real name?
Cheers

Maryborough Victoria has a very elaborate railway station. It was originally designed and intended to be located somewhere else. Where was that?
