Those crazy estate agents | Friday, June 20, 2008 |
Now that we're starting the planning process to return to the UK I can't help but think about what characterises Australia to me now.
I sat in my favoured cafe near work this morning eating an omlette for breakfast and as the daily papers hadn't yet been delivered I read through the mid-week property pages. Browsing the ads I found something that sums up the city perfectly. There's a long florid house-sale-esque killer features; water views, hardwood floors, air con, CBUS blah, blah, blah.
Then the cherry - no traffic lights to city.
