We’re leaving in a few hours to go to Merredin where we’re attending a sea shanty concert. I’m looking forward to seeing the venue as it’s listed as a tourist attraction so it might be a bit more than a simple town hall.
Vince’s doctor sings in the group and with luck we’ll meet up with them about an hour from here at a pie shop to have lunch together. We’re taking Vince’s brother with us and paying for him as a thank you for the time he spent helping Vince fix a leak in our motorhome.
The doctor’s wife and brother both work in the practice with him. The wife has her own sea shanty group but I don’t think they’ll be singing tonight. We won’t be back till tomorrow afternoon so I won’t be able to read your posts till after that.
I’ve put the same photo up a few years ago. It’s in Merredin and is another clever sculpture made from scrap metal.

I hope you have a good time and enjoy the concert. Thanks for the memories. My godfather was a doctor and specialist who was also a very talented bass-baritone singer. Amazingly I found this on YouTube in the photo my godfather Janis Klavins is the picture on the left.

The sculpture looks artistic and abstract.
Have a good time at the concert!

This is a very innovative use of scrap metal!
Hats off to guys who do this.
I hope that your concert goes well!
Is Merredin near Perth or closer to some other major city?
Have a nice weekend.

Those pieces of art amaze me with their detail.
Here in America, if you saw your doctor at a concert they’d probably charge you a visit fee.
(Kidding) Hope you had a great time!
