The ‘search for the convict voice’, the quest to discover something of the inner-lives of figures that have transfixed Australians for generations, is expanded as well as complicated by an analysis of the sounds of penal life.

It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992. See story page 3. Graeme Nicholson ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The RHSQ Bulletin, November 2020 – Page 2 President’s Report The year is now in its last few months and the end will be on us quicker than we think. It has been a strange year with the Covid restrictions and closures. Despite this there are still a number of significant events still to be held. At the recent Council meeting, it was resolved that Library and Museum Funds, to the extent of $3,000, be utilized to pay an honorarium to two young volunteer IT specialists to further assist with the upgrade of our current library catalogue and to provide necessary quality assurance. Quality assurance checking would involve reconciling the library items with their digital entries and addressing missing or errant records. This is an important quality control project. The volume of work undertaken by the museum volunteers and the committee has been extensive.

  • Lake Eyre, Innamincka & Birdsville
    Lake Eyre, Innamincka & Birdsville - 2 Day Flights 2 and 3 day flights from Adelaide Lake Eyre 2 day accommodated flight – overnight beautiful Innamincka. Lake Eyre is a central focus point of this flight, however it is a small part of a hugely varied and very rich flight over this outback part of Australia. Your flight will cover a large part of Australia, its outback history and interesting legends. Pelicans over Lake Eyre Water fills Lake Eyre Piper Chieftain twin aircraft used on flights Route includes Lake Eyre: Adelaide - Port Augusta (To Refuel) - Past Wilpena Pound - Burke and Wills’ Dig Tree, Queensland - Innamincka Bus Tour of Cooper Creek – Over Coongie Lakes - Birdsville - Lake Eyre North and South - Olympic Dam (To Refuel) - Adelaide. Normally, about once every decade, heavy rains in Tropical Australia create restoring floods which flow hundreds of kilometres down through country such as Dajarra, Boulia, Winton and Longreach. When these floods reach the Birdsville-Lake Eyre-Cooper Creek basin country they fill the channels, waterholes, billabongs, clay pans and lakes that create the surface of this country. This in turn creates a flood of water life – fish, crustaceans, etc. which attract some breeding pelicans and waterbirds, such as banded stilts, cormorants, spoonbills, etc. The restoring floods give life to the land and create a host of dependent animal, bird and plant life. It is amazing to fly over thousands of square kilometres of vast desert country, then find the country refreshed from recent floods. Your flight is the most comprehensive and interesting trip of the Outback of South Australia and Queensland.
