Welcome to MagBazWords

​Updated November 2022


Welcome to our new website, the successor to MagBazTravels which accompanied us for the last 16 of our 25 years of full-time travel (1995 to 2020). Very old indeed by the standards of free internet software, that site has now been archived (fixed, made static). It remains fully available for use, although we can no longer edit or add to its many pages, pictures and links.

MagBazTravels was designed and operated mainly for long-term, long-distance travellers by motorhome and/or bicycle; this new website will still track, trace and record our travels (when we have some) but its remit will be broader, although just how broad is yet to be seen.

Starting life in the Tropical Rain Forest inland from and high above Cairns in Northern Queensland, MagBazTravels spent its whole life supported by its developers, Rebecca and Kevin. Involved from the beginning, they have now brought the site to a peaceful end, miraculously still able to share information and experience, and hopefully provide inspiration. Not least, our many hundreds of articles have been extended by the words and pictures of 78 'Fellow Travellers' for whom the site is now both a record and a tribute to their journeys.

MagBazPictures is still very much alive, as well as Holly Bank, a tribute to Barry's former college. The website MurdochMacKenzieofArgyll is a memorial to the life and work of the Minister of St Andrew's Church in Madras/Chennai, the city where Barry was seconded for a year as Professor of Physics Education at a Central Government University. ​
