  • Hi this is a very long shot but I hope that I can help. A year or so ago there was a programme on BBC radio here in England about the early exploration of Australia by the settlers. It talked of people setting off to find their way across Australia and dying on the way through lack of water. In particular, it spoke of an exhibit which I think was a tin plate, that someone had scratched their last will into, having failed to find water. Any idea where this is? I am a musician and have written a song about it, called Australia, which is performed with my band at every show and gets really good reaction. www.thekoanbrothers.co.uk Would love to see a picture of this item that features in the song. Hope you can help. Thanks Dave
