Tim's Wish List

There is always something on my wish list.


The World's Longest Taxi Fare by Larry O'Toole


I read about this newly released book in the Melbourne Age of Thursday 4 September. It's the story of how a Victorian taxi driver accepted a fare in 1930 to drive three elderly women 11,000 km from Lorne to Darwin and back. One of his grandsons has now captured the story in book form and recreated the journey.

It will probably be the next book I order.
