But you can't beat Melbourne for sophistication - yes - they know it - but they don't push it in your face. Some of the dive bars are amazing too - although the hipsters are just tolerable

Yeah the Yarra river is certainly accurate with that description.

They all say it is miserable and depressing down in Melbourne and Sydney is so much better.
So even overseas people prefer Sydney. They all want to settle in Sydney or Queensland not Melbourne.![]()

There is nothing like Bondi beach in Melbourne city. Poms go to Australia for the surf beaches. Not a shit brown river.![]()
I don't know Fred, yours is pretty pathetic but i think LOL's thread would give you a good run for your money.
good point Fred. I bought a beach house on Philip Island during the pandemic. Prices have gone up about 100k since then, and the house is paying for itself and more in airbnb rentals. Local holidaying is doing very wellFred wrote: ↑Sun Apr 18, 2021 6:19 pmGot love it ... but that’s every day if you want it on the goldy. Always think australia is an amazing place with each town capital city having something great to offer. Off to Port Douglas Wednesday to check out my new place.
On a side note.... it’s red hot at the moment on the holiday rental market and investing in some holiday rentals could be a good move. DYOR however ... advice is of a general nature etc etc .... also ACDC if your up for shares but on my track record definetely seek your own advice on that one lol
