YAHOOO! I'm PROUDLY one of the aussie mob. I'm a Sydneysider, very happily listening to the magpies warble in my backyard, watching the indian mynas talk to the guineapig, and listening to the sounds of home.

Helo again, I am a new south welshman, living in Taree (otherwise known as 'Stinge-ville', LOL)

Some of the lesser favourate attractions that Taree has to offer are that it has one of worst crime rates in regional NSW, one of the worst councils in regional NSW, some of the worst drivers in Australia, a recently renovated main street that looks dumb and causes traffic jams, a multi-million dollar swimming complex that few people use, and everywhere you look there are potholes and cracks on the roads - alongside half-harted attempts to fill them in by council workers.

But Taree has its rustic charm; just stand beside its erroded banks and see its flimsy, outdated main bridge overlooking a silted-up river!

I'm a Victorian but currently in Sydney working.

Will be permanantly back in Victoria soon.
I'll be living in a small town west of Ballarat.

Hey, one of my besties comes from Taree, Ades Maiolo? I'm from Sydney, she boards at my school. Our family has a holiday place @ Shoal Bay. (Port Stephens.)

Nah, he/she/it (sorry!) is just singing the praises of her home town. Nothing to be ashamed of! :D
