By the time I went to Uni I couldn’t stand it. But, now it would have to be my favourite, especially roast shanks. Love lambs fry and love mum’s crumbed chops.
Can’t say I’ve had boiled shanks though - doesn’t sound appetising!
Kiwi Fred - re: the pic. Are they a heap of power lines in the R) of the pic. I have no idea but would that seem right pre WW1? Maybe pre WW2 and somebody has the location wrong?
There's no way it's pre-WW1 - troops can't have been lined up BEFORE the war started! I think the giveaway is in the actual original newspaper caption at the bottom, "Avenue of honour". The Ballarat avenue by that name was first proposed in 1917 and constructed between then and 1919, so the suggestion of a WW2 connection seems more likely than WW1.Kiwi Fred - re: the pic.

Of note is the quite extreme height from which the pic was taken - locate a building or something very high, where a large, heavy camera could be placed and that might nail the location.
Have to agree with your assertions grubstake
Couldnt blow up this section of the photo to get a very clear image , si I may be wrong in my assumption here but the circled green object could be a motor car parked behind the building and if it is , it could be a 1930's era sedan and not one of pre WW1 vintage ..
