I am so happy the repair man can do my machines on Thursday, so I am off to the big smoke. hugs

I'm guessing that in Heather's case it would be Brisbane - Queensland's capital city. Otherwise it would be another big city closeby to where she lives. Love Chris

Nope it's not Brisbane, it's Townsville!!!! She lives quite a way up the coast of Queensland.

The big smoke is a large town or city. A tin pot town is so small if you blink your eye driving though you miss it. Also we have one horse towns, that could be behind the black stump or at Tim-buck-to. hugs Heather

I knew about Tim-buck-to. I grew up in a "blink you miss it town" but i never knew it was considered a Tin Pot town.
Cute is a wonderful place to learn so many things. Thanks for the answers and thank you Bev for asking the question.

Do you know about Plum-Nelly? As in, plum out of Georgia, nearly into Alabama -- on the border. Isn't language fascinating? I used to live in a big smoke (Atlanta), but have retired to a Tin Pot town .
