Feel the sense of adventure as you leave the rush of the motorway behind, slow down to explore the twists and turns of these country roads, and stop for a while in friendly villages and towns.As the name suggests, this road trip gives you the chance to see some stunning waterfalls, but you won’t just see them from afar. You can also walk behind one and swim behind another, so if the weather’s warm enough pack your cossie for a refreshing dip. What is a QR code?

CoÂs may have a population of around 70,000 people but it still feels like an Aussie beach town and, with more than 90km of sandy beaches, there’s plenty of room to spread out. -
A S H E T News
1 ASHET News October 2011 Volume 4, number 4 ASHET News October 2011 Newsletter of the Australian Society for History of Engineering and Technology The Dictionary of Sydney; take a look The Dictionary of Sydney project is an initiative of the Sydney City Council and the University of Sydney that was launched in 2006 with the help of an ARC grant to the University of Sydney of nearly $1 million. The idea is to present the history of the Sydney area on line in a series of contributed articles. It first went on line in 2009 and has been steadily expanding since then. Visit the website at www.dictionaryofsydney.org/ to see the scope of the project. The area covered is the Sydney area from the Hawkesbury to Port hacking and from the coast to the Blue Mountains. The item furthest from the centre of Sydney in the dictionary is probably the one contributed by Ian Jack on Mount Wilson in the Blue Mountains. The articles on the website are short and readable, well suited to browsing, and are conveniently indexed. There is a distinguished list of contributors. Anyone may offer The tourists a contribution, and many ASHET members would readily find an opportunity to make a contribution that would be a worthwhile addition to the dictionary. Melbourne has a similar project, The Encyclopedia of Melbourne, that you can visit at http://www.emelbourne.net.au/ Industries in New England By Ian Arthur In August this year, ASHET committee member Rob Renew led a study tour for ASHET members and others to the New England area. -
