TUES 14 - WED 15.10.2014: Onward to Nindigully Pub, QLD's oldest hotel which is located in its original condition and position on the banks of the Moonie River. The license was issued in 1864 and from the late 1800's was a Cobb & Co coach change over station.
There are 140 Akubra hats donated by locals and one police hat labelled 'pinched'. 'Paddy's Room' is named in memory of a local who called in one night for a packet of cigarettes, but did not survive the drive home. This is the room where patrons who are 'under the weather' can sleep off their festivities and continue on safely the next day. Pub patronage is all that is required in return for free accommodation, showers, toilets, dump point and garbage bins.

As luck would have it we managed to time our arrival with scheduled entertainment - so love it when that happens. Kaylens Rain (brother and sister Kaylee and Glen Harrison), and then Amber Lawrence - had an excellent night. Even met Luke O'Shea's parents - Luke O'Shea being the country singer we saw during the festival at Port Stephens.
Enjoyed a meal at the pub the night after Amber's performance - must say it was a little quieter!
