Mate there''s Straddie Island white and Bribie island white and a few other names for it, basically same sand just comes from different locations. If you live on the Nth side there is a place on Dohles Rocks road that has Straddie Island white which actually is white. Or another cheaper place on Gympie Road at Strathpine.<

>It may be a case of them mixing the sands I''d say just to bulk up their stocks. Just check out any landscaping joint and they should have a proper white sand. If not there is a place near the airport that sells sands for sand blasting etc. They have proper white sand there as well. Hope this helps.<
