Farmer Roy's Random Thoughts - I never said it was easy.

Roy give us some perspective
looked at the map of nsw and it rivers
how far will the water at gunnedah have to go before it reaches the sea in south Australia although some will get used /evaporate before it gets there

even though I spent 3 months in nsw on a number of farms a week near gunnadah I did not realise how far north you are
