Away
Normally my vacation images are sent from the phone. However I've been having trouble with the N95 image editor resulting in dud re-sizing.
So I've used a mate's PC to post a dozen shots of my travels this week, from south to north. They're of the mid-North Coast in a few specific places, reflecting stays with friends in those areas.
Here's a challenge for those familiar with the area to correctly guess the localities. Whoever scores the highest result wins....err, a dinner with yours truly at the Regent Street Gas, Guts 'n Go. (Judges decision is final; dinner anytime between 10pm and 1am; no pick-ups, transfers or accomodation provided; no travel or food security available; win at your own risk, thrillseekers!).
gee i havn't been north in 15 years but is one of the photos of cresent heads.

They all look so familiar it's driving me crazy, that bridge is definitely familiar. Gah. How frustrating.
However, do I score a point for guessing the
Regent Street Gas, Guts and Go is that servo where all the cabbies stop to fill up and it has a tiny restaurant called Michael's or something?

I'm not even going to attampt to guess at any of the places, but that looks like exactly the place I need to be right now!
How the hell are you going to manage to drag yourself back to the harsh reality of living and working in Sydney?
I hope you're enjoying yourself, enjoy your well deserved break!

Haven't been up that way since several years before I moved to Perth in 1989, but here goes.
The bridge could be the one at Karuah, or the one over the Manning into Taree. Don't remember the approach being so long, though. The other could be the one at Forster/Tuncurry.
Couldn't even hazard a guess at the rest.

Mate, I just got back from a 10 day holiday in PMQ myself. I now have two immediate family members living there, so accommodation is cheap!
Probably won't belong before I pack up and head up there for good myself.
