Guest Jules Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Hi Riekie According to this link everywhere in Queensland is considered regional except the greater Brisbane area and the Gold Coast. I never knew that I am actually living in a regional area, just 40kms from Brisbane city centre Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danie Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Sjoe Jules is op die bal.. Ek het ook so 'n biedjie gaan vroetel wat mens op die wereld wye werwe kry...- op hierdie een van die Government bladsye is die beskrywing van 'bush'What is the bush?For the purposes of the Blueprint for the Bush, the‘bush’ includes communities outside South-EastQueensland, excluding the major regional centres.It includes communities west of the Great DividingRange, small communities east of the range, and thosein Cape York and the Torres Strait.The blueprint territory covers approximately 1.7 millionsquare kilometres — seven times the size of Britain —and takes in 130 local government authorities includingAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander councils.Importantly, the blueprint also acknowledges thevital connections between rural communities and theregional centres that serve them, as well as the largeurban centres of South-East Queensland, and themarkets and centres beyond.Maar met so met my gevroetel het ek 'n paar intersante goed tee gekom soos bevoorbeeld:'n Kaart van die verskillende Cities/Towns/Shires in QueenslandAs ook die kaart van Information Queensland Riekie ek is jammer in dien dit nie jou gehelp het nie, maar dit was baie interesante lees stof...vir al vir 'n Vrydag middag wat nie verby wil gaan nie... gelukkig kan my manager nie afrikaans lees nie... Groete,D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jules Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks Danie Interesting links, thanks for sharing. I just downloaded the blueprint for the bush, planning on reading it later, it should keep you busy for the rest of the afternoon though at 52 pages It's so overwhelming to think that rural Queensland is 7 times the size of Britain !! It's so easy to forget how big Australia is ...Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
