This is our 4th visit to the Royal Melbourne Show and this year was the usual good fun.
With significant work being carried out to the showgrounds over the last couple of years and this year the layout changing for the better, we didn’t feel like we were walking from one end of the showgrounds to the other. Now with the new layout all the commercial aspects are placed together and the things we go for, being the animals and free pavilions are all together.
I also can’t stress how much better it is to visit on opening day, there just isn’t anyone there and queuing and crowds are non existent which makes for a stress free pleasant day.
Meg would have been more than happy to spend the entire day in the animal nursery playing with the animals; she at one stage was engrossed patting a rooster which was sitting on her lap for 15 minutes.

This website was taken down in 2014, but in 2023 I decided to resurrected it and bring it back online, as it is now over 20 years old, expect bugs and features to no longer work as they once did.
The website is 90GB in size and contains approx 30,000 photos taken by us between 2003-2011, it is hosted at home on an old HP Proliant NAS running Lotus Domino 8.5 and spanning across multiple databases.
