What the?!

MAGNETIC HILL near Peterborough is a strange phenomenon as you put your car in neutral, turn off the ignition and the next thing you know you are moving up hill, reckon we got up to about 5kms per hour. Last year whilst in the area we missed visiting here so made a point of stopping here in Peterborough so we could check this out.
NEAR PETERBOROUGH in South Australia, as you can see the scenery is arid, wheat growing area and old sandstone homes, they built with this as termites have a great appetite in the area.
NEAR BROKEN HILL in New South Wales, which has the red earth desert. Interestingly the area operates on South Australia time, area code and football playing as they wanted to change to SA as they felt they were just a pin prick on on the NSW map and didn't get funding, but the NSW Government stepped in as they wanted the wealth from the area.
