Australian Trivia Only

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

OK, too obscure I guess.
It's at Holdfast Bay - Adelaide.

Yep, probably your last 50 steps....
Nope, wasn't aware of the tunnel, have to check that out next time.
Spent a nice few days in the area though.

Yeah, do remember that, didn't go down it though.
Quite a few holes in the ground down that way though, quite interesting.

:D :D :D
Scored again :!: :!:

OK people,

Here's one I guess not many of you have come across. We only found it by accident.
Where is this water-tower-cum-staff-accommodation?
Water Tower 1 (small).jpg
Hint: It's on a large property. Built in the 1800s to house farm workers. Still in use today... for the same purpose. :shock:
:? Bet whoever lives on the top floor is fit! ... no lift, just stairs! 8-)

Helooo people??

No guesses yet...

Is anyone there?

I know it's difficult to see the water tank on top... I had to stand close to take the pic so I didn't get the farm name in the shot. :P :twisted:
Took this particular photo specifically for this forum. :D Got more of the farmhouse to post when someone gets it... you might recognise the house. ;)
I think the exterior was used as the purported house for a TV series a while ago. (I think I read about it somewhere. Exterior only was used, from memory... interiors were all studio sets.)


But I might be wrong. :o
Heaven forbid!

Maybe an ad?
=========
EDIT: I was wrong!! :o :o Looked up the TV series website...
Not the place I thought. The TV series was filmed near Sydney (which sort of narrows your search a tad.) :D :D
Well, at least it eliminates "near Sydney". :lol:
