  1. I visited the HMAS Castlemaine in Melbourne on the same day Drach did. It was balmy 12 degrees, so the sweat box that is Brisbane weather must have been quite a shock to him.

  2. There is also a Diamantina River down in Victoria that flows from the snow clad Mt Feathertop and Mt Hotham, so a rather non Queensland environment. No one is quite sure how it got its name.

  3.  @IntrospectorGeneral  That makes sense, while all major features in Victoria had been named by then, the Victorian Diamantina River is only a minor mountain stream that is a tributary of the West Branch of the Kiewa River.
