Post by admin » Tue Apr 22, am Alan As per my email to you, if you scan far higher rez, and adjust your photobucket, to stop our software choking your images down, your scans too can look this clear here.
I'm having trouble getting into my email at the present but saw your note and have adjusted size I hope in 'Photobucket'. Next item should be okay-fingers crossed. It is sure a learning curve getting evrything right but as I reckon you have said 'Knowledge is Power! All the Best, Cheers, Alan. Always on the lookout for Australian pre decimal First Day Covers.

Poor thing. When oh when will Aussie stamps ever learn they shouldn't embarass themselves by trying to become like I. Rarer than you think. There can't have been enough to provide very last bush post office with a few.
This not-so-well-known walking path along the Cahill Expressway above the train station offers stunning views of Circular Quay, especially from the purpose-built viewing platform.
If you have the time and energy, start the Cahill Walk in the Royal Botanic Garden and follow the path all the way to the intersection with the Sydney Harbour Bridge Walk, and from there continue across the bridge to Milsons Point. This way you can combine the Cahill Walk and the Harbour Bridge Walk into one, and experience the best views of all the major Sydney landmarks.
In the 19th century, well before the bridge was built, a thriving ferry service carried travellers across the Sydney Harbour from the north shore to the city. But with an increasing population and growing economy, the need for a bridge or tunnel became increasingly obvious. After years of debating, royal-commissioning, designing, tendering and analysing, construction of a bridge across Sydney Harbour was legally authorised in Construction work officially started in , the two arches joined in , and the bridge was completed and opened in The Harbour Bridge was ultimately designed as a two hinged single span steel arch bridge.
This type of bridge was chosen because a steel arch could accommodate heavy loads while at the same time would look impressive and imposing.
The winning design of the bridge needed to incorporate functionality and beauty. The pylons were also faced with granite to give them a more natural look, despite the fact that this involved considerably more expense. The Sydney Harbour Bridge now carries 1 highway with 8 lanes, 1 railway line, 1 cycle lane and 1 pedestrian walkway. The event saw the biggest parade of sail ever held in Sydney, all magnificently passing under the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
During the day, over visitors, including six original Climb leaders, Climbed the Bridge and enjoyed chocolates from Darrell Lea, which once housed its factory under the arches. BridgeClimb also unveiled its brand new logo, a symbol of the company's modern perspective on the globally recognised landmark.
