    Eucla, Western Australia. It is the last stop on the crossing of the Nullarbour before you get to the border with South Australia 13 km away.

    Hope it is OK to use this again as the last time wasn't counted!

    Sorry about the A again

    Eugowra, NSW. Here in 1862, Frank Gardiner and his gang blocked the road with carts and robbed the coach of 14,000 pounds in Gold and notes.


    I am getting confused, I think this is the one that wasn't counted.

    "i typed in acapulco, mex. And it showed that it had not been used.........................i guess. I should not have used the country abrev. Or the country name, or not used the country name or both the country name and the abreviation.

    Zonie, it is best just to use the town name. We had a discussion way back where a sub-rule of the game came to light - the town name is all that matters so places like Paris, France and Paris, Texas are repeats, because Paris is what we are looking for.

    Don't worry too much about it, you will soon get into the swing of the game.:)
