Re: 70 years of an absent head of state
  Andrew C

I like your work Yuri. If I was Her Majesty I would be very angry that one
of my Governor Generals sacked a Prime Minister without my knowledge and
approval.

To get this back to trams, here is my photo from 2011 when our Queen nimbly
alighted from a Melbourne Z3 tram into a Land Rover for the brief drive to
Government House. Prince Phillip had already urged the tram driver to get
on from Federation Square as they were running late.

Andrew.
