Some other left over pictures from when I went to the Opera House the other day.
From Wiki....
At the eastern end of Bathurst Street is an obelisk which was erected in 1857 and unveiled by the Mayor, George Thornton. The monument is actually a sewer vent, and soon the joke around town was to call it 'Thornton’s Scent Bottle'.[2] The obelisk is an example of the Victorian Egyptian style and was based on Cleopatra's Needle in London.
I don't look very happy. Must have been about to say something... The champagne was alright!
