Artists William Light, George French Angas, Samuel Thomas Gill, Martha Berkeley, Theresa Walker and more.

First meeting yesterday for our new fortnightly group “Up There Cazaly” talking Aussie Rules and cricket.
Kudos to Richard who wore his #Morwell Tigers footy socks. Why? They’re woollen and probably at least 60 years old!
