Yensch Ave. I know where that is Pete, just behind Bunton park.
That will be all post war houses in that area which will be right up your alley 😊

Once you get settled I look forward to catching up

Merry Christmas to you and the family

I think we could in many cases add achieve nothing. I was amazed at one group where after being elected to the committee, as this year has progressed, most of them have been conspicuous by their absence.

Depending on what the interest is, I have not heard much from, or about, Ham Radio Clubs, or any other forms of Radio Clubs, in the Albury - Wodonga area & The Vintage Radio Club has two members from that area. In the rural areas tyranny of distance is always an issue, albeit unlike a City like Melbourne (Which Centrelink seems to not understand); Inside an hour from here (Wangaratta), I can be in Albury - Wodonga. or very close to Shepparton.

There is Ham Radio Club in Shepparton: The Vintage one alternates between Benalla & Shepparton.

The only thing that Centrelink understands is how to delay everything it deals with for as long as possible. It is the world's biggest bottleneck and the people that run the joint are completely useless.

Ahh! So true. Perhaps their bosses need to do an apprenticeship: Like so many months living just on welfare to get an appreciation of their incompetence & the rip offs.
