  1. Similar to the ' sand mining ' of " Fraser Island " that couldn't be stopped ! . So they denied the export licence. Thus shutting down a big money operation. Now a smaller Industry is feeling the cost of strangling the tourism out of Kgari . spacesailor

  12. Our local supermarket had ' armed security ' untill someone actually fired his ( male ) pistol. Like a limp cracker , possibly a 22 calibre. No big bang to make us ' shake in our boot's.
