The Ghost of Benanee

... waived the fees because they need the numbers for it to run. I have to squeeze it in between my major studies, but it should be doable. The only issue is at the end of the year, they have a ten day field trip to a local site for the practical test, but they also want me to undertake a site inspection of my own that's engineering related."

"That doesn't sound too bad, so I guess there's another catch."

"Not really. It's all pretty cruisy. They've left it up to me to research a site and present the proposal as to why I want to study it. That's going to be part of the assessment."

"Not asking much, are they? Any ideas?" asked Vicky.

"I've got a few things that could work but hey, it's only March. Plenty of time."

It's like people wanted to forget the settlement ever existed."

"Well, come on. Let's get back to your place and I'll get you a beer, and Jo can give your feet a massage. You can bounce ideas off us."

Daz nodded and sighed. "Yeah, sounds good. I'm not sure even if I want to go out tonight. A good foot rub and an early bed might be the go."

The extension of the railway from Annuell to Euston is almost completed... When the line enters Riverina it is proposed to carry it on from near Euston to Lake Benanee, where an irrigation settlement can be established.)
