Capnsully Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Yep! For our overseas ppl, the Parliament House is unique in that much of it is covered by good old Aussie backyard lawn. All they need to complete the look is put up some Hills' hoists and and washed clothes hanging off the lines! There's plenty of dirty linen being aired inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Harmes Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Awesome shots John. I've been near the top of that tower, when it used to be called the Telecom Tower, (Back when I was in Grade six, a long, long time ago). We also went to the "Brand Spankin' New" Parliament House and got to shake Bob Hawke's hand. Ahhh the memories. Thanks mate, for that trip down memory lane.

Sorry, mate, nice shots of Canberra The roses grow well at Parliament House too, fed on a contiuous stream of BS. Roll on September 14th but watch out for landslides.

Capnsully Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Ooh, best to not get too political here! I like to keep it generic, none of the worms and weevils under that lawn are worth trusting ) Another tourist lesson- the Old Parliament House is a must-visit, so much more character and history, plus you get to see the PMs office and wing, you can literally smell that history.
