Just got back from the honeymoon, just wish it didn't have to end! I did see some WW2 history while I was away. On Fraser Island there is the wreck of the S.S. Maheno. She was driven ashore in a cyclone on 1937. From 1941 onwards she was used as bombing target by the RAAF. Not one struck the ship!, but there were many near misses. She sits rusting on the main beach of the island.


Here is a picture of my Wife and I on our wedding day



Had a great day and a wonderful honeymoon, it's a shame to come back to work!
