I can’t tell you how good this series is, even 30 years later unlike other shows this stands the test of time..

Love watching these old bush tucker man shows. Takes me back to 1988 watching on a Friday or Saturday night with the old man as a little boy.

Dear Les, I just stumbled upon your post today, I am sooo happy. I used to love watching you on the tv. It’s so wonderful that you’re (we’re) still around.you’re still married and happy with your family. Unfortunately, I lost my love 10ths ago. Oh, wow, thank you. I’m so happy. I’ll never have the money to visit your wonderful homeland but to watch you again is incredible. Thank you Major x

Looks like an awesome seafood dinner. Some fresh barra and longbums roasted over the coals. Not a lot of fish that taste better than fresh barramundi. Coral trout is the king of fish but fresh wild barramundi comes pretty close.
