Great pics Blacky 😊 Love those old workshops particularly the Blacksmiths. Mind you the Work Health Safety people would die if they ever saw that gear!

Looks like your having fun !!!

Adelaide has some great buildings, German influence I believe !

Cant wait to get there, its 10 years behind Sydney and I love it, slow pace and small population, right up my alley !!
