Great work Lizard, very entertaining. Got some good laughs, particularly during your funny poems and when you said "This next song is not one of my favourites"! Are you trying to play an F during Biminy? One of the notes in the chord doesn't sound right, or it is being muted perhaps? A few songs might work well with a capo - changing the key slightly (a lot of your songs are in C) and also changing the tone of your ukulele.

Viking’s Wind is pronounced with a long i as it refers to a Viking blowing a horn

Both my grandfathers came to Fremantle from Ireland in 1853 on the Phoebe Dunbar

I have see grass grow quicker.

Watching this is like waiting for paint to dry.

Glad to see my dads trams still going well.

Wrong tune!!

They forgot to ad bicycling to the first transport options.

So why did Melbourne keep the trams , and not Sydney

The best rappers have been real silent after this

Интересно, а троллейбус по магнитной дороге едет? За счёт чего он поворачивает в нужных местах?

Nice video, Like

This is great, been looking for it for ages!

It’s a classic 😅

Possibly 1 of the greatest stuff ups of all time getting rid of trams

Studiously avoids mentioning Melbourne.

Choo choo! I'm a train and I approve this video.

Fun fact The tram lines in Sydney and Brisbane are mostly still there, they were just paved over. I worked on the new Gorge st line and we cut through the buried lines a few times while cutting trenches for services.

I think one or two trams from Australia now are at MOTAT museum in Auckland and still run at times, one is a Kitson steam tram, would be good on a Cold winters day, toasty warm with the boiler nearby.

Trams making a comeback in Sydney.

Gawd . Why do presenters have to be so dumb ? Big put off .

And return nuclear power stations for clean, affordable energy for centuries. The nuclear waste? No problem. Dig deep trenches in inner-city, gentrified dumps like Erskinville and PeterSham. Only Marxists and lesbian feminists dwell there so who cares!

Brilliant work!

Petroleum,

bruh just seeing this now haha

Where was that steam tram going please?

They disappeared because of the Cahill Government and the fucking NRMA >:(

at full capacity it was something like over 500km

Rules to live by ❤️

This is very moving 💔

Thank you for this Graham , my Dad would've been on that train ( in the 3rd carriage from the front ) & I remember that day well , thankfully Dad managed to get the earlier train that morning & he arrived just minutes before his normal train arrived in Parramatta so when he arrived at work in Sydney - everyone was amazed that he'd survived his trip to work that day ; I'm so glad that we didn't lose him that day.

Nice video.

Fantastic stuff. What would Make you excited for your day, everyday? I would love to Be friends xD

Nice video. I share the fascination of trams and love the hobby. Thanks for sharing.

Has the Australian government invested development of future trams ?Or in Building Trams in Australia ? With the disappearance of the Australian built Car.

Cool layout! :)

Hi Graham , I suppose that this corona virus has caused you to loos your mind??? , let me know if you ever find it again. :-)

Anorak comes from the fact the popular stereotype of a trainspotter is an anorak, thermos and notepad.

Well done Graham. I've said for as long as I can remember "our hobby is often as, and in many cases, more interesting than the topic". Most enthusiasts are focus solely on the trams and very few take an interest in its people. Trams create passion and many people are entirely devoted to them. "Life Is About One Thing and One Thing Only" is a common philosophy throughout the hobby. Yes; "gunzel" is a term of endearment for all those interested in trams (and other forms of transport). Once it was more of a put down (a bit like the term "anorak") but that's changed over the years into a general term of endearment. "Anorak" is more of a UK term. The equivalent in the USA is "foamer". Keep up the good work!

Thank you Graham ( Uncle Fester ) for sharing your latest video , it was very interesting to watch , keep in contact if you can.

Great poems Lizard!

I do hope the lion enjoyed devouring young Albert. All that kerfuffle over a grisly little lad.

Nice info, thanks for posting! Thumbs up. Have a wonderful day!

Good one Graham got the story down to a tea. I went to try and shop the other day but missed out so I ordered online got what I wanted. You tell it like it is and what we all think

Good One Graham , I think that Slim Dusty would be proud of your take on his song "Pub With No Beer" as I'm sure that he would've done the same sort of thing too. :-) , my Mum's brother used to sing with "Slim" back in the day when he was known as John Kirkpatrick but that was so many years ago now.

TramPainter Shenandoah was a chief of the Iroquois people, the Oneida from Canada and New York state. He fought for the American colonists in the Revolutionary war, although most Native Americans fought for the British. He led between 250 and 300 men into battle and would be at least a short colonel these days. After the war, President Jackson exiled all Native Americans westward to Kansas and Oklahoma, regardless of their loyalties. This included the Oneida and their six foot six tall chief. The Treaty of Fort Stanwyx decreed they all go, no exceptions. A French fur trapper wrote this song after being separated from one of the daughters of the tribe. Because of the way the French had previously treated his nation in Canada, he was reluctant to sanctify their union. Shenandoah lived until the nineteenth century, to the age of 106. The song gained popularity among river boat men and then sea going sailors. It is a terrible indictment on racist white men in USA, Canada, Australia and many other English speaking nations, yet remains one of the most beautiful melodies and lyrics ever.
