	Australian Alps Walking Track - Brochure
		The Victorian Alpine Walking Track, developed in the 1970s, was the first stage in the dream of linking the Australian Alps with a three-state trail.
		Continuing the Australian Alps Walking Track through Kosciuszko National Park (NSW) and Namadgi National Park (ACT) turned that dream into reality.
		The Australian Alps Walking Track is an extension of the Victorian Alpine Walking Track, through New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.

	The Drunken Boat
		So while Croggon’s work eschews the merely regional, for there’s nothing in these works of the obvious trappings and symbols of Australian aboriginal culture, her work is aboriginal in sensibility, in its use of “dream time” and threshold states of being, where one dreams awake and waking dreams.
		The realm of dream is marked by a fluidity of identity and embedded or submerged emotion.
		It should be noted that Croggon’s ballads eschew the narrative common to that form; they are unabashedly lyric, and more in the mode of song.

	Dream Videophile by Deirdre Barrett - International Association for the Study of Dreams
		Dreams as preparation of death is discussed as a concept in diverse cultures from the Australian concept death as return to the Dreamtime to Rev. Jeremy Taylor leading a dream group for elderly Californians to the Dali Lama discussing dreams in relationship to the Bardo state of the Tibetans.
		The dream sequences are denoted by the dry-ice fog or red lighting surrounding the heroine as she wanders around in a flimsy nightgown looking confused.
		Since all males in the dreams are potential rapists and the woman hardly enjoys her nightmares, the origin of the title remains elusive.

	PROLOGUE - THE DREAM POLICE
		There was a certain touch of irony to this: Brambles was the Australian company ordered to pay $62,000 after it accidentally sold some of its computer records at an auction.
		Police also revealed that Citibank had brought in extra floppy disks to do the copying, but there's no indication in the police file that police kept a record of how many floppy disks were brought in, or whether any had surreptitiously been swapped with some of Paul White's disks.
		It was unlikely to be a police officer, as they had no reason to impersonate an intelligence operative, and even less reason to blow their own operation by tipping off White in advance.

	Amazon.com: Recurring Dream: The Very Best Of Crowded House: Music
		CH is more than just "Don't Dream it's Over" which although is still my favourite track from them, that encouraged me to listen to their other works and perhaps with the exception of "Woodface", unless you are a die-hard fan, just getting this disc alone would be good enough.
		Crowded House were an Australian/Kiwi rock band, and one of the greatest of their time.
		My wife and I spent two weeks driving through Crowded House's home country of New Zealand a few years back, and for most of the trip, this was THE album we listened to.

		It was mainly the achievement of men from sheep stations in the Australian bush, or from the fields or townships of New Zealand, who a few short months ago had no dream of warfare, as like other civilians, they went about their ordinary work.

		The 22 volumes of the Australian histories of the Second World War constitute a sustained work of scholarship, and as the final volume (Hasluck 1970) was published twenty-eight years ago, it is certainly time for a comprehensive reassessment of the planning, selection of authors, aims and achievements of the official historians.
		The Australian War Memorial has the most extensive collection of private records of war, and while it has been successful in persuading ex-servicemen to donate personal papers, one common set of records that may be under-represented are letters between those overseas and spouses or other close family members.
