Hi guys,
Does anyone know where these locations actually are?? I've seen them mentioned many times however countless google searches and looking on maps these two landmarks are nowhere to be found.
Cheers guys.

Agree with avatinni on mums
Agree with avatinni on mums point.
Dads point is where riverton drive gets to it most northern point, near linkwater street. Sandy bit where the channel becomes very narrow and very close to the bank.
Dont know where my info comes from though it was 20 odd years ago....used to be one of our fav spots.
