Tahmoor is a small town in the Macarthur Region of New South Wales, Australia, in Wollondilly Shire.
Originally named Myrtle Creek, it was a farming area on the Great Southern Road, later named the Hume Highway.
When the new Main Southern Railway line opened in 1919, it included a railway station named Tahmoor. This name was contested by a local businessman, who wished to establish a town called Bronzewing Park, but his claim was rejected. The town had recently been named "Tahmoor", a local Aboriginal word for the common bronzewing, (Phaps chalcoptera) a native pigeon often seen in the area.
The Bargo River passes just south of the town; the Bargo River Crossing on the Great South Road was so notoriously difficult for travellers, causing many delays and accidents, that it has even passed into Australian folklore, in the form of the song Stringybark and Greenhide

We don't often travel much over the Christmas and New Year period but we did catch up with some friends down the South Coast at Gerroa, about an hour and half south of Sydney. Seriously, it's a beautiful spot of the world. I would even say it's the best family holiday spot in NSW. We stayed only a short walk to Seven Mile Beach. Which has some amazing sunsets, which isn't usual for an east coast, Australian beach.

Mag ik wat dansmuziek, meneer
Wellicht 'n wijsje van weleer
Ik dans alleen maar doe dat meer
Mag ik wat dansmuziek, meneer
U ziet mijn passen zijn wat stijf
Ah, ik heb moeite met dit lijf
Ooit was het soepel, sterk en vlug
Maar nee, die tijd komt nooit terug
Leve de man die alles heeft
Je kunt het niet indenken of hij kan het kopen
Let op de man die alles heeft
Kijk eens hoe die kijkt als hij iets moois ziet lopen
Alles van mij tot aan de horizon
Maar keek er nog één keer een meisje om
Speel nog wat dansmuziek meneer
Oh,ik heb heimwee naar weleer
Ik wil nog wel maar kan niet meer
En de herinnering doet zeer
Leve de man die alles heeft
Je kunt het niet bedenken of hij kan het kopen
Let op de man die alles heeft
Kijk eens hoe die kijkt als hij iets moois ziet lopen
Alles van mij tot aan de horizon
Maar keek er nog één keer een meisje om
Mag ik wat dansmuziek, meneer
Toe, mag ik wat dansmuziek, meneer
Ach, mag ik wat dansmuziek, meneer
Maar keek er nog één keer een meisje om
Hoe doe je dat, hoe doe je dat
Hoe doe je dat, hoe doe je dat
