Cheers,  Williamson (AKA Michael)

Motorcycling, the best time you can have with your pants on.
eBiking, the second best time you can have with your pants on
Afterlife, up there for the climate, down there for the company.
If I'd known I was gunna live this long, I woulda looked after myself better

It's the old straw boiler at Broadfrod, Victoria.

Biggles, that is exactly what I thought, but then I decided to consult Dr Google and apparently Strawboard is (or was) produced as a building product. There is quite an interesting story here in relation to the Broadford boiler. I won't go political, but rather allow others to form their own view about unions.

That's a very good find.  Yes indeed, the less said about unions the better.

I can't believe this has been left to drop to the third page.  I might have to think up some clues.

It's within two hours of Harrow and I passed through it visiting the RTE on the same weekend the previous year.

Oops, edited the clue repalcing "and" with "on" which was a typo.  This was from 2017.  I came from New South Wales.

Not quite the ride between Margate and Noosa, but you pass this place on the way from Donald to Stawell.
