Tall Tales
We love this page! This is where we invite you to write a tall tale about the outback and submit it to us.
It’s really easy, just write a short story of between 100 and 200 words about a character or event that did (or could have happened) at or near the Burketown Pub and submit it to us using the Say G’Day form. If we like your story, we’ll publish it and maybe even make a poster of it.
Every six months, all the new stories go into a draw to win to win a week’s accommodation, meals and bar tab for 2 at the Burketown. It could be you, so get it in, OK?
Oh, and if you’d like to link to our Online Mates page, the conditions are simple; your site has to be relevant to the outback and we want a back link too. Again, send us yer’ link with the Say G’Day form
