I've never been but my sister learned to surf at Bribie 10 or 12 years ago. When she started high school she lost interest in surfing and gave her softboard to my son. Now it's in my friend's house in An Bang near Hoi An and his son uses it and loves it. Got a lot of use out of it that little thing! I forget why I'm telling this story.
The net keeps getting bigger. What is it about Bribie?

Would I be right in thinking that places like Bribie exist to make the rest of Australia seem palatable?

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

What do you mean. It’s a thriving cultural hub.

Seriously doubt the Bribie Island Chamber of Commerce would sign off on that advertising campaign.

You silly pedantic old bugger, you missed the salient point of the whole thing.

Which is, how could the same driftwood still be in the same place from a photo taken likely in the 60's until now?

The answer is the Bribie Pine, Callitris sp. A native conifer with chemical compounds that render the wood incredibly impervious to decay. At that particular location, as well as on large areas of Bribie there are stands of Bribie Pine. It loves sandy soils and there is strong evidence that traditional aboriginal cool temp fire management was conducive to Callitris development.

Don Watson, in his excellent book The Bush, waxes lyrical for some time about the incredible properties and uses of Callitris sp, which is found all over Aus, except Tas.

Seriously, what a bunch of clueless tourists white people are in Australia. Still, after 200 years we've got no fcuking idea.
