The GFs cows at her farm in Thailand.

While in Australia we have driven all around NSW and seen many a cow with very little interest from herself. Some acknowledgement of their difference, that is all.

Sheep however are a totally different matter. The first few times there was almost excitement at seeing a flock of Sheep. Of course the moment always need a photo, not an easy task to convince Sheep to stay close enough to the fence to be in picture.

We have also been lucky to see in the wild a few Swamp Wallabies, some Kangaroos, an Emu, Echidnas, Cockatoos, Galahs, and a Wombat! No Koalas in the wild as yet.

Funny my misses always says that the sheep look like rocks in the paddock. Where abouts NSW are you travelling? My wife has been very lucky because we get to see Koala's regularly on the farm we live on. If I could work out how to upload photo's I would show you. Oh by the way we live in Boggabri up north of Tamworth

The closest we have been to you ozziebloke is Quirindi and Tamworth. (on an aside, we stopped at pub for lunch in Quirindi as the GF wanted steak...she loves AUssie steak... The Pub owners wife was Thai, and working there another Thai. They cooked our Aussie steak for us. tongue.png )

We have done the New England Highway twice now, with a couple of stop offs along the way. Same with the pacific Highway. Have been up to Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast .

Heading down the coast we have been almost to the Victorian border, back inland through various towns, Canberra etc. Also we have done a trip out to Mudgee, through the Blue Mountains, then back through Singleton.

Are you having problems uploading using Thaivisa?

My brother lives in the town next to it Gulgong (the ten dollar town) LOL looks like your trip has been a real snail trail smile.png If your heading down Victoria way try around horsham heading west to Bordertown going into SA you can see some great country there. Sorry getting off topic about Thai farming.

Re: Mudgee. Great place, been there many times. Have stayed in Gulgong 2 times. My grandfather and his family were from Rylstone, which we also went to. Family member was giving a talk at the local Historical society.

The trips were not one trip, but about 5, at various times.

A rare moment.

I really like pigs. And ducks.

I could never be a farmer as i would never have the heart to sell them off for food.

Eat them form a shop, sure
