Moving to the Big Smoke

Richard · 20 Mar 2012, 06:31

So I'm off down to the big smoke - Sydney from my current and home town for 40+ years (about 80k north)!

Should be nice getting up and heading over for a swim (perv) and coffee on the beach each morning. Bit of a healthy change!

Sydney's inner harbour Balmoral Beach. For me one of the nicer spots on the northern side.

That's Manly, right Richard? Beaut spot!!!!!

I can see me unconscious and intoxicated on that front lawn....

Balmoral mate! Manly is the foreshore across the harbour in the background!

Yeah I can see myself sprawled there too from time to time! BTW bottleshop right next door! No more "jezzz I could handle a few more, but I'm too loaded to get in the car"!

Good On you Richard! Need to clear some of those trees for the view.
In the big city now! Soon you'll be wearing a tie like

Mate I'll have to buy a tie! You could be right I see everyone wearing them!

Mate I'm moving from about 80k north of Sydney - sunny central coast, lots of bush, waterways and great beaches and as a climber about 20 crags within 20 minutes so will miss that.

But given the location I'm moving to I'm not sure I'll miss too much - on a summers day the beach is full of gorgeous chicks so the benefits will out weigh I'm sure.

Congrats on the relocation.

Hey Richard, you need one of these. You might bump into my daughter Shelly in Sydney! She has been signed up with a 4 year contract since last January. She is really enjoying the place. I hope to get out there next year for a visit.
