On the day when Australia's most unfavourite Yanqui heads home, the story of one of his former employers' most memorable advert is lived out by a Tasmanian couple.
In 1962 singer Lucky Starr had a number one hit with 'I've Been Everywhere'. The song which name checks 93 Australian towns remains a favourite. Now a Tasmanian couple is on the ultimate road trip, visiting every one of those communities.
Great stuff.

Well, interestingly, a large number of times and stayed there every time. You have to leave the main road these days but it is not a bad place. I wonder if the tuckerbox is still there 5 miles out or if they've modernized it.
Didn't Lonnie Donegan do a version?
