Feeling locky?!

Some of our favourite locks ...
When we visited Wollongong last July, we were intrigued by all the locks at Keira Lookout

It seems the sentimentalists have locked onto Sea Cliff Bridge also!

There were many locks. Quite a few had traditional "locked together" messages but others displayed more unique sentiments.

I really liked the one addressed to Gerard (bottom left) for it's story - and the fact that the engraving was so nicely done.  The engraving standard varied widely and some people had favoured black texta as a cheaper option. It was clear that the cheapest locks rusted faster, though praps we shouldn't have interpreted that as an indicator of the relationship's staying power!

Sadly, there were a number of people who chucked the lock's packaging over the side - which tarnished the aesthetics considerably (top centre).
