20250605 We left Gravesend for a 20k drive down the road to Pallamallawa for the night and have lunch at the Pally Pub, entering the town we realised we’ve been here before. The meals were lovely and probably a little bit cheaper than some pub these days. We stopped  at the bakery in Moree when a guy asked Des if he’s travelling, yes he said, I can tell said the guy it’s always the scruffy ones that get the good looking woman, well!
