BarbandDaz, I feel sad to hear of Tommo's passing too.
This is the first that I have heard of it.
R.I.P. Tommo.

I just saw that as well BarbandDaz. Only seems a few months ago he was up here at the Home Show. How did it happen ? He wasn't that old.
Cheers,
Sheba.

Very sad and must have been quick which would have been a blessing. Can't find anything about it online.
He spent the weekend with us up at Manar one Easter.....very genuine bloke.

Yes, that is very sad. I saw him at the Camping Show a few years ago. Very genuine bloke. I hope his passing was quick.
RIP Tommo.

Tommo was a great & geniune character of the bush.
I loved his TV series where he travelled up the cape & back down to Straddie. I can still picture him 'diving' out of his van into the surf, on one of the SEQ islands.
I regularly make his chillie jam (from his book 'Camp Oven Cooking with Tommo) ...
At our BBQs I usually open a new jar & spread it on the second side of the steak. The jar of jam then becomes a very welcome gift to my BBQ friends.
