You're not one of those transit cops are you? :lol:

Generally out the back of the Salisbury Football Club (just south of the Salisbury train station). But me and my mates weren't fussy, if there was a train we threw sh!t at it.

Salisbury Park. At the back of the tennis court on Terrigal Drive (I am assuming you know the area now).

Must of been before your time mate :D I still remember it when it was in black and white. Salisbury's biggest store was a Coles and we only had two pubs, The Peter Jackson on one side of the station and the Governor MacDonald onthe other.

You old bastard... I vaguely remember PJ's, it was McMahons by the time I started going there. The Salisbury Hotel was up the other end too, but that wouldn't have been the posh end.

When I lived in Adelaide I rarely ventured north of Regency Road, but there is actually a street named after me, and one named after my sister, in Para Hills West. It was a bit of a thrill when I was a 10-year old to see it on a map, but I have never been there. [Family connections to a Real Estate firm.]

Yep, same here mate - 15 years old playing senior footy at Salisbury, wandering through the doors in the middle of a big group! I was pretty stoked when the action moved to the village, could walk home from there and spend more cash on $1 drinks instead of taxis.

I sometimes wonder how I survived...

Let me guess - so you could spend more on booze and less on cabs? Good work.

As if there was any thought attached to it.

Didn't seem that far though!

Until I was 23 I lived in the strip between Torrens Road and Port Road. When I married first, we moved to Vale Park - the opposite side of town from my folks at Croydon and hers at Richmond! Everybody thought it was the other side of the earth!
