Used to go east up Payneham Road, right up Portrush Road, left up Kensington Road (and then would somehow make it to St Ignatius senior campus).

Used to get quite a melting pot of Mary Mackillop, Loreto, Marryatville and St Ignatius students on the same bus. More than a few smelly fingers if i recall correctly,

Oh behave, this is a family show :lol: :lol:


There was more than fingers on the Outer Harbor train line.

I didn't catch a bus to school ever!!

Kindergarten - my mother walked me the first few times then I walked with a couple of kids my own age.
Lower primary school ditto.
Age 10, about grade 4 or 5, my parents bought me a second hand bicycle.
High school I got a new 3 speed semi-racer bicycle.
Last year at high school one of my mates picked me up in his parents' Austin A30 car.

Adelaide University - public transport at last - I went by train as I lived near the West Croydon railway station...
EPIGENETICS - Lamarck was right!

Walked 10 mins to Primary School
Walked 12 mins to High School in the morning,
after school piled on the to 100 with everyone else because it was free back then and went 2 stops to Arndale, majority of the time with someone hanging out the window tagging the side of the bus, lucky we didn't have phones back then.
Trust the process.
