Between Luna Park and Acland St. (in St. Kilda, Vic. Australia
(right
near my house)) is a park called O'Donnell Gardens in which there is a
fountain that looks (and sadly often smells) like a giant urinal. It
once had
a banked concrete ring around it one could run around like a velodrome
(woo hoo! I did try it on a bike once, but that was a bit risky). Alas,
a few years ago, they "fixed" it and the velodrome/pedodrome was no
more! Well,
the plaque on that there fountain provides all of the above "lyrics"
without omission and very little reshuffling. Onya Ed.
