Photographed the beautiful National Trust Property, the Eclipse Theatre, which sits on the New England Highway, Tenterfield. It sort of represents what the Country Independents care about. A cultural metaphor. Motorists speed past The Eclipse which nourishes her country just as the lovely Sydney Opera House nourishes Sydney. One of the movies shown recently at the Eclipse out there on the Queensland border was Twilight Eclipse. How's that for a cultural statement? Wonder what the National Broadband Network will do to the Eclipse Theatre? Could go digital, eh? Could be on an Australian architectural heritage trail? After all, Australia's a country, not a city now. Wink. Wink.
That's why we have seen the annunciation of Country Independents who have today anointed a Gillard Labor Government.
