Very nostalgic about our holidays in our Albion Bus, here we are at Burleigh Heads in Queensland, way back in the 1980's, lovely memories of all those holidays and parties in this that's for sure. Both Buses now belong to the Sydney Bus Museum.

Photo a Day Challenge - 15.5.2024 - Weathered.

This old letter has weathered well!

This letter from Henry Parkes is almost 160 years old, its about my 2xGreat Grandfather William Long who came to Australia from Ardstraw, Tyrone, Ireland in 1856.

Translation... (I think) Warrington. South Creek... April 4th 1868.

Dear Mr Young,

I have spoken to the Inspector General about Mr William Long. What you ask will be at once done and I will hear something something... if I can serve his interests consistently with duty to the public for justice. Yours truly Henry Parkes
