NEW DIRECTIONS FOR DAVE'S ACT

I have a new interest... developed because I have found that searching YouTube provides very little information on 19th century Canberra heritage. This I think is surprising as surely people must take videos when they visit these places. Apparently not in Canberra.

If you would like to follow along I will post the videos here of course or you can subscribe to my YouTube channel here. If you are new to Canberra's 19th century history you can brush up with a few older posts from the past 12 months organised alphabetically usually with keywords in the title in the archive
