During the second world war troops were stationed in the Derby area. In
1944 Corporal Frost came up with the idea of building a swimming pool. With
the help of two others it was built and although small, mainly due to the
lack of suitable materials, was very popular. Filled with water from the
bore it catered for officers during part of the day and other ranks for the
balance of the day.
The pool, though now in poor condition, is one of the few remaining
reminders of those years when the troops were stationed in the area.
Gill and Peter like to travel. In 2011/12 they completed a trip around Australia. One of the things that they are aware of is the fact that to live your dream then you actually have to do something and that's what they did. In 2013 they decided to further explore outback Australia and crossed the Simpson Desert. Going forward they will continue to travel as they plan for the next few years. To see some of their other trips follow the links.
