I showed the vet students slides today that I have taken over the years to illustrate my journey as a vet. There were photos of Gundagai, a lovely rural town in New South Wales. It reminded me of this lyric.

Along the road to Gundagai
by Jack O'Hagan
 
There's a scene that lingers in my memory,
Of an old bush home that I long to see;
That's why I am yearning just to be returning
along the road to Gundagai.
 
Chorus
There's a track winding back to an old-fashioned shack,
Along the road to Gundagai;
Where the blue gums are growing, and the Murrumbidgee's flowing
Beneath that sunny sky,
Where my mummy and daddy are waiting for me
And the pals of my childhood once more I will see;
Then no more will I roam when I'm heading right for home,
Along the road to Gundagai.
