G'day Don R  That is a nice old photo aye ? And yes, a very handy item to have beside mineral springs,I think it would be safe to place the photo in the Windmill thread  Cobber, (ex windmill owner  ) |

Hi Cobber, Yes, as soon as I saw the photo, I thought you would be interested in it. Marjie2 too. I think it's the best photo we have of a Windmill back in its own era. One thing I noticed is - if I'm not mistaken - the hatch opens the opposite way to the one on Marjie2's Windmill, but otherwise it seems to be a dead ringer. I'll re-post the photo to the Windmill thread, but I thought I'd start by just asking the two (actually three) of you whether you recognised anything.  I've got another surprise coming up for you too, by the way... Don Ricardo |

Hi Cobber,
Sorry for taking so long to posting my surprise. Yesterday turned out to be busier than I expected, and I didn't get back to my desk.
I realise that I may also have raised your hopes that I had found out something about Ol' 36. Unfortunately that's not the case, but I have found out something about a manufacturer that you have done quite a bit of research on. So check out my post on the Brindle thread. Quite exciting I think!

Hi Cobber, I realise that I may also have raised your hopes that I had found out something about Ol' 36. Unfortunately that's not the case, Don Ricardo Well yes I have always felt that if anybody was going to find information regarding who built Ol '36... OR Driftwood... OR the war surplus van it would be you, and I haven't given up on you yet  so keep digging, you are finding all sorts of incredible information. Cobber. |
