G'day, Barry.

Yeah, hi, Clinton.

I grew up in the West Wollongong area, and I also... went to my mom's house in Unandara.

So more of the Wollongong area than Dapto.

Okay.

Well, how did, you know, as Winston Churchill said, a lie will get halfway around the world before the truth has had the chance to put its pants on.

How do you reckon the Dapto thing came about?

I reckon it's because I created a show called Koala Man, which was set in Dapto.

And I think the assumption was that I set it in Dapto because I was from there.

April 17, 1871.

The following particulars have been supplied to us by Mr. George Osborne of the Illawarra Hotel, Dapto, concerning a strange-looking animal which he saw last Monday, and which he believes was a gorilla.

It is to be hoped successful means may be adopted to capture the animal, alive if possible, as it is quite evident it is one of the greatest natural curiosities yet found in the colony.

Together with the interest attached to this strange monster in human form, there is something very remarkable and suggestive in the fact that he should have presented himself to Mr. Osborne while the gentleman was going his rounds collecting the census.
