Beautifully photographed Aaron. Agree with the shot from the truck, very atmospheric.

I can only echo what others have already said - it's a miniature masterpiece. Well worth the extra effort!

Lovely end result Aaron - a very attractive little cameo there. Just need a few locals lounging around!

Looks like it was actually an 8 o'clock swill in Qld, which was abandoned in 1941, much earlier than Vic and SA....

On Sundays times were11am-1pm & 5pm-7pm to appease the church goers and the government.
