Well it looks like my fate has been sealed. I am 99% sure that my current 6 month stay in Sydney will become permanent. My oldies split up last year and I have been with mum at Drummoyne in Syd but now my dad has scored a massive job based in Bondi juntion so has just put our house on the market in Melb. His new girlfriend lives in Cooggee ( ?) so he is keen to be close to her ( she is fucking hot ).
Mum and dad are still apart. It is just coincidence that theyve both left Melbourne for Syd. I kind of thought that this was going to happen.

Spent all day today with dad looking at apartments in the eastern suburbs. He loves Potts Point and I must say that it is very very nice with lots of old and very expensive apartments ( most of them not with water views but still stunners) with windy and hilly streets. Lots of activity around there too, it is a scraper lovers paradise with some excellent views. My dad has done alright for himself and is looking at some expensive places,we looked at this one a couple of hours ago.

It is on level 8 of about a 18 level block in Darling pt and is well over gulp........$2m ( thats Potts point over the water behind the yachts I think)
If dad gets a place like this I'm leaving Drummoyne for sure !!!!

I told my dad that I called myself christarrant on this forum and he smiled and said if he moves to the eastern subs of Syd I should change it to craigwing !!!!!!!!

Thanks dudes, I will miss Melbourne alot, I have lots of mates there and will REALLY miss seeing the Pies in action. All Ive got to look forward to footy wise is the massive Pies v Swans Telstra Stadium Homebush annual match.
I must say that I really like Sydney. Its very different to Melbourne for sure but it is a pretty addictive place for a person who likes a bit of action. My mum really likes it too and my old man spends most of his time here with work anyway so it won't be such a big deal for him to move here.

I agree uewepuep !!!!!! I hope to get back down to Melb for Xmas to see the family etc etc and you know what that means, seeing hopefully all 297.3m of Eureka staring me down. What height do we think Eureka will be at by the end of Dec this yr, with "just " 80m left to go surely it must be topped out by then.Maybe not clad on the outside though ?????

Well, by the looks of it you've been in Sydneytown for about a year now....what do you think of it? You getting along well with those Sydney Boys High kids? Sydney's a cool place, and I sometimes wish I was back there again...Cheers, hope it's all good
