    Nice behind the bar shot, check out the rat traps!

    The glasses are surprisingly small, either Sevens (7 fl oz or 200 ml) or Ponies (140 ml). And they appear to be sculling them, none of your warm pints sipped for an hour.

    Merryjack Looks that way, although I've seen Qld cane cutters sipping Ponies of Barb Wire (XXXX) after a long, hot day. Apparently so the alcohol doesn't go straight to the head and they collapse.

    Interesting mix of cold and hot weather uniforms!

    The name of their ship has been blanked out from their caps, that would be due to wartime censorship so the enemy would not know which ships were in port.

    A fine array of bus body styles. One of them is sure to be bound for the far south coast, to towns like Eden.
