Melbourne Cup story - complete with Vintage caravans!

[Franklin1]

G'day All,

A couple of days ago, ABC News ran a story about the trophy for this year's Melbourne Cup. The trophy will tour around Victoria prior to the big race in November, with the tour including a stop at the Fosterville Gold Mine where the gold for the trophy is mined. You can read the complete story here if you wish...

Accompanying the story is a photo of this year's trophy on a tree stump, with some sheep in the background. But what's important to this forum is what is showing even further in the background...

Now, here's the dilemma...which would you rather have? - the trophy, or those two vans at the back??

cheers,

Al.

The vans, please. I'd keep the one at the rear and move the larger one on to someone else here.

Actually, I think I'll take the gold trophy please.

Hi Franklin1,

I'm with Grandad - definitely the vans! More valuable than gold...

And I agree about which one I'd keep - the right hand one. Looks a bit like Cobber's Ol '36 Ol '32.
