The WORST Thing About Adelaide

Post Code 5065...

it seems the only names used here are Henry, Will, Angus, Charles or Harry for boys, champagne has been the flavour for boring cars and more tartan than Scotland.

Meh. Adelaide drivers are aggressive and generally undertaking idiots.

But Brisbane drivers cannot understand the concept of lanes, indicators, or forward planning.

The bus drivers seemed alright when I was there.

I should clarify...

our fascination with old mate, hell MMM's idea of an April Fools joke was that he was coming back to the Cows (I was unfortunate to be in earshot) - tedious to say the least. This and every second fashion/travel/motoring story in the w/e rags (and frankie mag) is New York this New Fucking York that, it's bad enough Kev is saluting Dubya (yes, 'twas just a g'day of sorts), this pandering and allure to the USA has got to slow down. It's a great country but we have it so much better than Mexican infested cities, artificial and sculpted clone suburbs and communities and standing in line at the shops/traffic/bar is the same everywhere. Granted, the amount of coin over there is obscene and peeps can do well but fuck, this town of ours has it all. *

ADL 4 LYF.









* shit roads, crap intersections, pointless tram exstensions (O'Connell St. could be so much more with a ding-a-ling), two too many football teams, shite buses...

but our mall does indeed have balls (and indigenous Australians riding bronze pigs).

Transport SA is the worst thing about Adelaide followed only by Mile High closing, possibly by being bought out by the only other bad thing about Adelaide...... Red Square.

Ive never been a fan of recovery clubs anyhoo

My two cents - Bob Francis takes the cake he represents everything that is wrong about Adelaide

Public Transport shits me no end.
I absolutely HATE when the bus travels at a crawl so that it is on time, or the driver does the old speed up break slow down sped up etcetc.

The other day I was on the bus and it was all going well until this old couple came on from interstate. The bus driver decided it was his mission to show them around the town and at two points actually stopped to show them things.. oh yea and he stopped off to take a slash as well.. I mean really.. I am paying $4.10 for a service I expect to get to where I want to be on time you f***face.

Mile isnt closed for good. Will re-open in 2-3 months after a much deserved break. Basement is closed forever Thumb :thumb:
Mile will have much larger dancefloor and renovated club n beer garden when it reopens. Music will stay the same so you wont be bored for too long howse.

Another thing that sucks about adelaide, bitchiness and back stabbing and lack of respect..

That said though, there are a few good people out there that are quite the opposite.
