'UJ', Wondai is the name of small rural town we have been visiting on a regular basis for nearly 30 years, originally because my wife had several family members living there, they have since passed on or moved away, but we still visit there, and regard it as our Bush Getaway, it's a small neat Town, with a population abt 2,000 very friendly people, there are 3 Pubs and a Club all within abt 50 metres of each other, and the accommodation is rustic but cheap. :-D

Forgot to mention 'UJ', that Wondai is the local aboriginal word for Wild Dog (Dingo) :-)
Sounds nice, AGP. Thanks!. I live in a town of 2000. Just about the right size.

"Thanks Bjorn", looking forward to seeing your one-string-thing :-)
I want to see that, Bjorn. Alan, I wonder what wondai means.
Nice and clean! Reminds me of a one-string -thing I made many years ago. I shall put it on display later today!
