Keeping up with the Joneses of Coolibah Station
December 1st, 2010The Joneses of Coolibah Station
November 11th, 2010‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ is poking along nicely each week although I’d love to see a lot more on the work and details of what work on a cattle station really entails, rather than just more of what the Jones family do in their time off. Which unfortunately could give anyone who doesn’t know […]
Outback Television and Radio
October 24th, 2010Most Australians don’t know that remote areas have only had access to television services since satellite television came into being in the late 1980s. Until then it was impossible to receive a television signal in remote areas, regardless of how high the aerial. Even today, most of regional Australia can receive a signal from one ABC radio […]
Keeping up with the Joneses of Coolibah Station, and farm safety
October 18th, 2010Interesting to observe discussion about Milton Jones driving the ute with ‘young Milton’ (4 years old) starting to learn to drive, sitting on his lap, on the first episode of ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’. Travelling along a straight, private road on Coolibah Station, with his son just steering (not as if he was working the brake […]

Horsepower with Martin Clunes
September 23rd, 2010Great to see Martin Clunes (Men Behaving Badly, Doc Martin) doing a lap around the world featuring different types of horses, horse history, horse training etc. Horselover heaven with the ideal host – funny, humble & sensitive. The only pity was that such great material was squeezed into just two episodes – it could have easily been expanded into […]

September 2nd, 2010The ‘Outback 8’ television series has inspired many kids to dream about living and working in the bush
FOOD,INC film – let’s hope the vegetarian barrow-pushers don’t overshadow the important message
May 10th, 2010The film (movie) Food,Inc was produced in the U.S.A. and released in 2009, and is about to be released in Australia (next week – 20th May). Food,Inc. is especially relevant in the U.S.A. – the home of rubbish takeaway foodchains and an obesity epidemic (though not to suggest that we’re all Olive Oils here in […]
