Welcome to my readers


Life can change in just a few short moments. The death of my grandfather Henry Milton Scott changed every aspect of my life from that day on.






He loved the town of Katherine that he lived in and its history, especially the story of the Overland Telegraph Line. I like to think that he transferred his love of the O T Line and the Northern Territory's history over to me while he passed from one world to the other. He left plenty of clues to finish what he started to do. The puzzle is coming together so please stay tuned for plenty more sneaky peeks of history........ coming this way.

Introduction for the content of Red Spots Over Darwin.


A compelling true story of a young man working up a high telegraph pole who sees the first formation of Japanese planes fly into Darwin bombing the harbour and then the Post Office on 19 February 1942.


He loses three of his family members in the first bombing raid and recovers their bodies. He goes onto be instrumental in the significant change over from Morse Code to Speaking Ciruit during World War II while working for the Post Master General Department.


His experience leaves him with war time neurosis but revovers when he returns home to his family in South Australia. He later finds love that gives him the strength and desire to return to the Territory that left a huge impact on his early life.


Red Spots Over Darwin - poducts are now available and are stocked in Darwin.
