I was working in Parliament House yesterday and spied some of the old menu's framed on the wall from one of the dining rooms.

 

1897 offering here............ Yek........

 

Great to have access to some of the little seen areas..

Ok, so were you:

 

a naked waiter?

 

a call-boy?

 

cleaner?

 

suck-up voter?

 

......or was it in your 'luvvie' capacity?

 

:wideeyed::wubclub: LC

 

In "Luvvie" capacity - for The History Channel on Foxtel. It's a series about changes in Australia both political and social. This episode was about "Billy" Hughes the SA PM in 1915 and the bringing in of conscription - some powerful scenes.

SAPM ?......the Premier of SA in 1915 was Archibald Peak, Billy Hughes was the Australian Prime Minister at the time.

:huh:Sorry not quite right, he said the SAPM, South Australia does not have a PM aka Prime Minister. South Australia and all other States of Australia have Premiers, they are not known as a PM. The Premier of South Australia at the time was Archie.

 

BTW William (Billy) Hughes hailed from the UK and lived in New South Wales, nothing to do with SA.
