Yup like when the French exported their ‘quiet’ Limmys over here.We obviously exported the cattle with "character" to NZ, like the people with it to Aus.

On the top of the Liverpool Ranges, that forms part of the Great Dividing Range, which seperates inland NSW from the eastern seaboard & was a big impediment to inland exploration in the early 1800's

Well, possibly! I wouldn’t want to get on the wrong side of one. They’re awesome but will crush bone!

On the way home
What looks like cloud in the distance, is actually smoke from a bushfire in Pilliga Forest, about 100km away. It has blocked the Newell Highway ( the main inland route between Melbourne & Brisbane ) between Coonabarabran & Narrabri. A mate of mine is working there firebombing with his aircraft

I've slowly slowly been picking through it this last few days. Taking my time to read what these two are on with, some excellent topics

A lot of what has been posted in this thread could solve some of the issues in the inefficiency of British farmers thread also

An amazing collection of pictures, will never get tired of the bush over there.
How are they getting on with the bushfire, any chance of rain helping?

Can still see it from the bird
What IS it with NZ Simmentals? What have you upside downies done to them? We've only ever had 2 mean ones out of around 1000!
Maybe it's not the cows it's the Kiwi's. My Fleckvieh was terribly upset when there were Kiwi's around!
She placidly stood eating her food and fed her babies and barely gave us a look except when I yelled at her not to kick
Oh and you should have seen the wreck when I took Kiwi's into an all Fleckvieh dairy! It was a disaster!! The cows all became mad beasts all of a sudden
I'm slightly disappointed that doesn't say Pitched his tent instead.

Couple of fires around us last night after lightening strikes. One put out very quickly thankfully. One still going. Had a little rain with it so can’t see it being too bad. Don’t like the look of that one up your way!

Them pictures bring back many happy memories of motorcyclin' in your part of the world!
It took more than 40 years for the Sydney settlers to find a suitable route inland as it was just easier to use a ship for transport. Now that's quite a time eh!
