AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 26 Jul 2008 | Views [65]

We really don’t know much about the Western Australian Gas Crisis because we haven’t heard a radio, read a newspaper or seen tv news since approx Feb 17, 2008.   All we do know is that since we’ve been in WA, lights in shops are used sparely and u ... Read more >
