Don't Try This at Home

Whether it’s trying to discourage her handsome personal karate expert, Gary Hammer, from bringing helicopter parts home from the tip, fending off giant lizards in the laundry shed or bouncing along dirt tracks on a tiny scooter with 3 dogs on board, this long-awaited collection of Anna Johnson’s 'Don’t Try This At Home' humour columns from 'The Meekatharra Dust' features some new pieces, extended versions, old favourites and plenty of laughs as she describes the daily madness of living in her adopted - and slightly feral - remote outback town.

”Sister Betty had quite a giggle, even at the rude bits.” - the nuns

“Please help me.” - Gary Hammer
