And don't forget, they share the great Hume Weir - with its fantastic (and very hard to catch) Brown and Rainbow Trout populations.

Good enough reason for a visit.
But, forget the Trout Farm - farmed trout aren't a patch on wild trout.
I feel sorry for anyone who has not tried a wild trout, barbecued wrapped in al-foil with a few slices of lemon.
Brilliant red/pink flesh and stunning unique taste, derived from the wild trout's natural diet of crustacea.
They don't feed 'farmed' trout on yabbies, just some grey pellets - so the farmed fish have a grey innocuous flesh - unless artificially 'dyed' and 'flavoured' to make them slightly 'authentic'.

Let us go down
To the lake again,
To the rippling bottomless green
As near immense as the Summer sky,
And let our cares fly free.

Dear Saltpetre,

You're making me absolutely drool.

Hey Chris Lewis,

"Me very sorry about saying Albury Wodonga."

I was just trying to understand, because well I was curious.
Many people refer to this area as 'Albury Wodonga' not just you.
- So I thought I'd ask what it was all about.

This is just, well you know, the kind of pointless tidbits of information that you keep stuffed in the vault of useless information somewhere way way back in your brain cavity.

No big deal and sorry if I offended your locality.

Armchair Critic,

Nothing to be sorry about. I can see why it sounds strange given they are two cities governed by two govts.

The coronavirus situation, with strict border controls, does complicate the concept of both cities being one location.

I do like Albury though, much more than Wodonga. I am talking about the city area where the main shops and eateries are.

Between the two cities, it is a very anglo-celtic place in terms of ethnicity, at least when compared to Melbourne.

There seems to be a lot of Thai restaurants, and I think the Indian presence increasing.

Chris,

How would you define the demographic of Sydney?

I only go there occasionally. last time 2016

Around Central and a few suburbs, very Chinese.

Around places I like, such as manly, bondi and coogee, much less Asians.

I suppose different groups have different interests.

It was like my NY visit 2016. Very multicultural, but at the NFL stadium, very European
