On the 26th of July 1991 at 4 pm Alan Leahy reported to police that his wife Julie -Ann Leahy and her friend Vicki Arnold had gone fishing  in the early hours of that morning and not returned.  They were living in Atherton Queensland and had three children. Julie Anne was 26, her friend Vicki was 27 and they were never seen alive again. 

We also talk about winter coats ( boring ) Marti's fear of bats, perfectly acceptable thank you very much, drunken night-out transportation and night fishing, yes night fishing!
