Fantastic I would marry them ifthey werent so popular, but I

am happy to share them

Unloved, dull and lacking character

Natural and rugged at times, wild and inviting

An artist with no money for paint

Magnificent, but a little untidy

a bit boring, no real identity

Relaxed, easy going and informal - anything goes

I am Binalong Bay with due modesty, I am veryspecial.....dont spoil me

Open, free-spirited and natural

Most beautiful person in Australia

decrepit, long haired, overgrown mess

not conforming to the idealimage of a foreshore area just

being itself

fun loving, relaxed, beautiful/unique, mysterious, down to earth, inviting

potential to be beautiful with careful use of native vegetation

natural, untouched, no buildings - keep it picture perfect

Needs a good haircut and shave

As they were with a few touch ups

I hope they will be still natural andstaggeringly beautiful in the future

Just the same
