[talk-au] Driver-Reviver?

[Ewen Hill]

As Cleary said, I think most are for the holiday period and key long
weekends and are staffed by vols from the Red Cross/SES etc. There is more
chance of it not being open and the only food is normally two biscuits in a
pack.

Most are well signed that they are in operation (in Victoria anyway) so I
am not certain if mapping them is more confusing than not.
