    I really enjoyed your really interesting video, thanks!! We visited Port Albert earlier this year and loved it! I tried to find any remnants of the Victorian Railways line that ran to Port Albert, also the narrow gauge railway that went from Port Albert station out to the east, but failed miserably! The line into Port Albert is easy to identify, but I couldn't find any remnants of the actual station. I hope to return for longer, one day!

I worked as an abalone sheller in the 70's for about 4 years and never heard of anyone from Victoria diving out there even though I think it is just inside 39 /12 ie Victorian waters Cheers mate well done

    Australia was settled as a colonial outpost in order to ship goods back to England, based on convict labour and harsh discipline. I don't think the past should be romanticized as some kind of paradise. It was anything but.

    • @lukesgippslandhistory

      Thank you for your feedback. Apart from the music, in which way do you think the video was romanticised? They were certainly hard and exploitative times and it is important that we understand how events of the past evolved into what we have and see today. Your further input may help with the production of similar slideshows in the future.

    That was wonderful, thanks! My parents, Doug & Jean Harvey had the Rhyll store during the 1970s. Charlie Richardson, then in his 80s, used to cycle up every day, rain hail or shine. I remember him telling me how as a kid, he cycled out to Kitty Miller Bay when he heard the Speke had been wrecked.
