NEWS LETTER

July 2018

Welcome to first (and somewhat infrequent) newsletter for 2018

The Site Update is Done!

Finally, after what we think is around 4 long years, the compete website has been upgraded and should now work well on all types of computers, tablets and smart phones.

It is a huge relief to have this done as it leaves a lot more time now for adding new information to the site. The HELP page has been updated to allow you to find out much more about how the various pages operate and what features are available.

Upcoming Trips

As most of you will know by now, we undertake a number of research trips during each year to film, photograph and collect new information for inclusion on the website.

Before the end of 2018 we hope to do at least two more trips, the first out to the gold-fields and the second is yet to be finalised.

We record each of these trips and the places we visited so that you can plan your own expeditions and find out what things we discovered.

Check out our trip Blog pages here.

YouTube Videos

Our on-going fight to get our YouTube channel re-monetised, is finally over and we are once again receiving a small amount of income from that source. The income we get from advertising never even gets close to us breaking even as it amounts to around $100 a month and we do have rather large expenses to meet to keep this website open. As an example, we have just forked out $1600 for a new laptop and a new video camera.

We do have a Patreon Page that we hope will one day help to get a bit more money coming in but as yet, it hasn't really taken off.

If you would like to become a patron, pleaae visit our Patreon page here.

Our YouTube page is always in need of new subscribers so if you or your friends would like to help us out, just visit the link below and click the subscribe button.

We have over 400 videos available now and a new one is released every Saturday.

New Content Is Coming

Now that the site update is done, we are already starting to produce some new content for the website.

We did a short day trip to Bunbury and visited the Bunbury Wildlife Park. It is a great place to visit if you are in the area and is relatively inexpensive.

We now have a feature page about the park that tells you a lot more and also has a video for you to watch.

On the same day we also called in to see the Featured Wood Gallery and Musuem in Australind.

A lot of people (including us) did not know this place even existed and we are grateful to Brian at SWTS for letting us know where it is.

The wood gallery has some amazing sculptures for sale and the museum is very interesting.
