This video feels special, like a respectful invitation into the ancient past, a welcome into a brighter future. Like the dreamtime. Thankyou. Just yesterday I was considering weather or not to decorate a woomera....no..., and the announcement to pass through country. Me, and my "mob", are grateful for the traditional knowledge.

I remember Les back in the early 80's when he played with Bruthen. He was then and even in this video an utter gentleman. i still remember him saying thanks champ when as a kid i was handing out the PK chewing gum before the games. I played one game against Les he must have been well into his 40's, he was still lighting fast. i dont remeber being ran down by many player but he did even at that age we had a huge laugh on the ground when he did. He should have played a much better level of footy, he was of rare speed and skills. Thanks Champ.

Great Australian! As a nation we do not have sportsman and sportsmanship anymore. Most people are self absorbed narcissists. From a great generation.

I think the person's life should be made into a movie. As long as it was made correctly. I have read some other stories about her and all very fascinating and heart warming.

Mrs Figen it’s jaisen

My aunt, an emigrant from Czechoslovakia, had lived in Melbourne since 1972. She has already passed away, but in 2013, when I visited, she told me that the rather Indian appearance of the station was due to a mix-up of plans. It is said that the plans for Melbourne were mistakenly sent from London to Dili and vice versa. But from what I hear, it's probably just a fabrication... Too bad I can't tell my aunt anymore. Nevertheless, I know that she lived 50 years on the other side of the world in a beautiful country that she loved. Even Melton, where he and his uncle built a house. Helen and Lada Czech.

Bring back un pc comedy!!!

Pioneers of flying, cool historical vid,thanks for posting

A Beautiful Story Xx

1:24 great to see Stephen Cummings in the audience. ty 4 vid.

Thank you

Those beautiful eyes, what a lovely lady❤️🌹

Growing up in Golden Square it makes me both nostalgic and sad. I think they reopened a gold mine where we road bikes.

What a lovely modern tale !

This attempt at a portrayal of Lola and her dance presents an actress who obviously knew little about either.--and who actually appears to be a blonde. Her skirts were no shorter than those of other dancers of the day, and contemporary accounts assure us that many found her dancing quite acceptable.

He did paint track side while he was here, in between Jolimont and Richmond, he also painted next to the MCG but very sadly it has all been painted over..

Bring it back!!!

Most Frenchmen identify as women that's why the French woman went head over hills for the Germans when I entered Paris

Greatly missed by the Fans.

Keith was a rock star 🤘⭐️

Been there

i lived in one of the apartments at Gore Street. 1998-1999.

Terrific. One point though. In your reading of his accounts Matthew Flinders called Port Philip by its correct name, Port Philip. You called it Port Philip Bay on more than one occasion. It is Port Philip. Sorry for being a pedant but it must be said. If this stuff is not called out we will be calling places Reservore when they are really Reservoir. We do not call Port Jackson Port Jackson Bay, why does Port Philip get cruelled so?

Beauty

The greatest mistake anyone could ever make was to upset extremely capable Go Fast Guru Harry Firth. The Aust branch of the Ford Motor Company made this exact mistake when they dismissed Harry & replaced him with American Al Turner to run their GT Falcon racing program after Harry had diligently delivered for Ford for several years. Harry immediately signed on with Holden & got busy belting Ford severely with the HDT HT350 GTS Monaro at the annual pinnacle Bathurst event in 1969. Not satisfied that that pounding was enough of a humiliation for Ford, Harry took on Holden's Torana GTR XU-1 racing program & developed the Torana into an angry hornet compact Bathurst weapon of mass destruction in time for the big Bathurst shindig of 1972. The Harry Firth developed LJ Torana GTR XU-1 with a highly tweaked but comparatively tiny 202 cubic inch Holden six & soon to attain legendary status; Peter Brock outgunned a potent armada of massively powerful Ford - 351 Cleveland - TopLoader 4 Speed - 9 Inch Diff - GTHO Falcons at Bathurst. Beating Ford's factory team at Bathurst with a dinky little Holden six was about as brutal as you could get. Typical Harry on a mission of: Here, cop this! On that fateful day, Harry stuck it up his former employers so severely, nothing else can ever compare. Harry was the magician of making cars go fast. No matter what you had or what had been previously done to it, Harry would inevitably make it go faster. Once he got onboard with Holden & his good friend Moffat got into bed with Ford Australia in 1969, a bizarre arms race ensued. These two extremely talented & crafty characters fighting against each other all over Australian Touring Car Racing caused rapid improvement in Aust built high performance cars like nothing before or since. Harry's contribution to our local racing heritage is so immense, it simply cannot ever be completely calculated. He made everything go faster. He had a gift. He demonstrated that gift. There'll never be another Harry Firth.

So beautifully done

What about the huge amount of artefacts that are currently being respected and cared for by current caretakers in private residences and the artefacts that are just there in private hands. Can they contact aca in relation to start the handing back process to the right people and not just a general sort of representative of right people?

Ahead of her time literally xD

here for school?

She was a highly sucessful OnlyMiners girl.

I think it's amazing how they did this 100 to 200 years ago

I happened upon a copy in a book exchange. It is a remarkable piece of work. Joseph's diary dispels many of the myths we are taught about early Australia, the currency lads and lasses and the supposed greatness of our forebears. The image I formed was of a collection of, short sighted and greedy individualists and or religious fanatics who were too ignorant to either build a well for water security or have the common sense to manure the barren land. Jospeh tried in both newspaper articles and in person to educate the people, but all of his efforts seemed to fall on willfully deaf ears. I was so impressed by the man and his diaries that my youngest son has Joseph as his middle name. This work should be mandatory reading in all Australian history courses however it is so contradictory to the narrative, I'm not surprised that it is still relegated to obscurity.

I can’t believe that, im the second commenter

IT WAS GREAT TO SEE HARRY, HE LIVED IN MY STREET, HILLTOP AVE, ALSO WORKED FOR MY FATHER AT A.F HOLLINS WE WERE A MOTOR RACING STREET, INCLUDING ME. 5 PEOPLE.

All this Indigenous history should be taught in schools

I read about Dr Gwen when she died and there was a story in the Melbourne Sun.

I love the peppercorn trees, but I am a bendigoian.

Silver service in the railways reminds me of Mt Buffalo Chalet😅.

The Chinese Knew how to get around Government and Tax compare to westerners, They where excellent at forgery, and to the official all Chinese look the same. they only commerce between Chinese with they own currency. They pay no Gold tax because they keep all the gold they found and never cash it in. Only when back in china where gold was excepted currency. Say they buy a horse they pay gold. think about today how people elude tax well the Chinese where the best at it. This got up the noses of the elite and the elite would start rumour and stir up the gold field egging on by the elite. Like calls of they take our jobs the use our women. You knew the drill. other wise they got on well with the diggers. Read about the 1860,s buggery charge on a Chinese in Darlinhurst courts, Man caught a Chinese with his Chinese mate horse and told his Chinese mate who report him the the police. The Chinese was found not guilty because no penetration could be proved. LOL it a great read.

Vale, Gerry Gill. Such a passionate and thoughtful, eloquent historian, who managed to bring much of our regional history to life through interesting perspectives.
