Our eldest son has for some time been domiciled in Melbourne (Victoria, Australia).

Since June he has been a refugee from the COVID (pardon my caps ) lockdowns in Danistan
whereupon he moved back home to Tasmania to work from a home office for the duration.
He is a lifelong passionate Melbourne Football Club fan.



So last week we all went to Perth for the AFL grand finals which I enjoyed immensely with him.
For any viewers from Europe that may happen to be tuned in, Hobart to Perth is a distance by aircraft
of 3015 km. (We, in the State of Tasmania are in a travel bubble with the State of Western Australia ).



His team won the AFL 2021 Premiership (the ABs were not playing, David )



Whilst in Perth I was privileged to be a guest at Moosburg .
John (river6109) has built a magnificent layout which is not only exceptionally expansive but also has
superb control functions over many tracks / trains and houses his comprehensive eclectic collection of
locomotives, rolling stock and motive power units that he has collected over very many years.
He has been ably assisted by his son since a very young age.


















Thanks again John for your kind hospitality. I am sure the Preiserlings will be very happy
in their wonderful new home with you.

Philip, thanks very much for these beautiful pictures (should have stayed longer to take more of them) and your kind words.

Thanks Glen, appreciate your comments, I may be willing to share my knowledge and experiences but I don't share all my selfinflicted disasters

I wasn't keen on the lockdown here in WA but everybody kept their distance or stayed at home and we can now enjoy our freedom without wearing masks.
