Something that was interesting to me was when i was building street cars , One of the guys i did work for he lived at fortscratchly with his parents as they were care takers there & i got taken through some of the tunnels that are'nt open to the public.Its incredable how far they actualy go.One goes done to the gun taret at the foot of nobbys light house..
One goes to the top of King Edward park where there used to be a big gun like whats at scratchly now.& one goes to Merryweather & there was one that goes down to the foreshore..Very interesting theres crib rooms & sleeping quarters in them.
I would'nt mind seeing all the old tunnels that are under Sydney seen a show once & the reporter was taken down to some & apperently there all over the place there..
There used to be some at Warrnersbay aswell they have been filled in now with all the houses that have gone up there..
That sort of stuff intrest me. That & the old Caterlena squad out at rathmines. I have an aunty who lives not far from it & when i was kid & we went out there i was always over there ,Plus with the old fair that used to be out there that was great i loved going on the army duck ride i was always on it..
And they used to give yes FREE show bags with all sorts of stuff in em kept me happy for a few weeks going through them.
They dont have things like that anymore, shame..
Happy Australia Day to all.

Well both Mrs Aus and I loved it.:D I have watched it more than once.It's the story of an old bloke with a dream and no money and the unconventional methods he uses to achieve his dream. Its funny and it's sad but all in all, a great movie and I know you will enjoy it!!:D:DQuote:
