点评:This museum had been recommended to us by friends who visited a week ago. We had planned a visit to a NT property in the area, so made an early start in order to visit Oakhams too.
It was well worth it, and we are so glad we made the effort.
Before we explored the vast collection, we enjoyed a very nice meal in the cafe served by friendly staff. Then we began our tour of the beautifully displayed memorabilia. A huge room full of tractors, tractor seats from all over the world. The smaller display cabinets were filled with themed items, thimbles, shaving mugs,cigarette packets, drinks cans, miniature spirit bottles.I could go on and on. Our family ran an ironmongers shop for over 40 years so I was fascinated by the well ordered displays of nuts, bolts, screws, hinges, brackets. Very artistic. We also enjoyed reading the many old newspapers telling of important events, many of them we remember being born in the forties. A most enjoyable few hours.
翻译:一周前来参观的朋友向我们推荐了这家博物馆。我们原本计划参观该地区的一处北领地房产,所以为了顺便参观奥克汉姆,我们早早出发了。
一切都非常值得,我们很高兴付出了努力。
在探索丰富的藏品之前,我们在咖啡馆享用了一顿美味的餐点,友好的工作人员为我们服务。然后,我们开始参观精美陈列的纪念品。一个巨大的房间摆满了来自世界各地的拖拉机和拖拉机座椅。较小的展柜里摆满了主题物品,顶针、剃须杯、烟盒、饮料罐、迷你酒瓶……我可以一直说下去。我们家族经营了一家五金店超过40年,所以我对那些整齐陈列的螺母、螺栓、螺丝、铰链和支架非常着迷。非常有艺术感。我们也喜欢阅读许多记载重要事件的旧报纸,其中很多我们记得自己出生于40年代。这是非常愉快的几个小时。
