Another very enjoyable Geotalk. It brought back good memories of my attendance at the NZ Mega Event. Well done Spindoc.

There used to be one of those, I think it may have been a GC virtual though as I claimed it in Adelaide so must have been 7-8 years ago. Got caught by the camera they hid in a wheelie bin, doing the same speed as all the other cars on that road.

Yeah me too, would have been very entertaining for us all. Great episode, listened on my way to work and you took me back there. I forgot all about work,was back on holidays.......... until I stopped the car and got out to the stark reality of where I really was.

Thank you for the warm feedback regarding this episode. I enjoyed listening back to it too.

I'm glad I recorded the speeches from Sunday night. Listening to it takes me back to the hall.

That law of parking on the other side of the road facing the traffic has been an infringement in most Aussie states since the 70's or earlier. Typically enforced when an officer felt like it.

As for the podcast - a great listen - ALL of it. Thanks D.
