Hi Dunmowin, I think it time you put some photos up on the webb pages connected to where this monument is.

My hunting is showing a point of interest, no photos, not far from Walkerston and across the Pioneer River from Dumbleton Qld.

Thank you Gooba.

Hi Whenarewethere.

Yes, it is Charters Towers, Qld.

Thank you.

 

Which border town is trying to frighten off desperate travelers from using their public toilets?

Have a stab in the dark, so to speak, & be forewarned to use your own roll!

When traveling around Australia we parked on the main street outside this public toilet block, there was a steady stream of nomads spending time in these facilities.

Across the road was a service station which we filled up before heading west.

No.

I said a boarder town but you are in the correct State. The is a sign when you leave town. Headwinds will increase fuel consumption (or words to that effect).

 Feel like this is a cryptic crossword, don't you have a photo?

How about LONG DROP, QLD..... from the toilet paper on the map.

If you want a good laugh grab 2 dozen layers of toilet paper for some sort of barrier from Camoolweal.

Over to you.
