“My square is <strong>of</strong> the Australi<strong>an</strong> Outback, the backbone<br />

<strong>of</strong> our country, hardships, isolation, <strong>an</strong>d yet great<br />

comp<strong>an</strong>ionship. The windmill is a real icon <strong>of</strong> the<br />

outback <strong>an</strong>d rural Australia, a vast dry country. The<br />

timber, slab houses <strong>an</strong>d faded wooden signs in<br />

isolated areas show that there is hum<strong>an</strong> habitat<br />

somewhere out here in this vast l<strong>an</strong>dscape. Here the<br />

School <strong>of</strong> the Air <strong>an</strong>d Royal Flying Doctors Service<br />

play a major part in minimising isolation.”<br />

“Football, Meat Pies, K<strong>an</strong>garoos <strong>an</strong>d Holden Cars”<br />

“The tune, ‘Football, meat pies, k<strong>an</strong>garoos <strong>an</strong>d Holden<br />

cars’ holds childhood memories for me. When I think<br />

<strong>of</strong> typical Australi<strong>an</strong> symbols, this tune comes to mind.”<br />
