Off-topic Breaking News Story: Living in Geelong. What's it really like?

[Aristotle Pickett]

I am living in Geelong for a month soon. What should I expect?
I'll be in Newtown which is the richest suburb of Geelong.
Norlane is not that far away if I need any gear.
My imagination is telling me there will probably be a meth house somewhere on the street and that there will be many unhealthy people on the streets eating fast food.

 

[frggr]

Given up on footy already?

 

[Tyler Durden007]

Lol. We don't let pinko, woke-o, w***er flogs into Newtown. I call BS

The National Wool museum is a must! It was opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second back in 1988! There is so much to do in the museum, like walk around and look at things made of or in some way related to wool. It is the only comprehensive wool museum in the entire world! I got some incredible woolen mittens from there.

The Corio Bay Roadhouse has been The Home of the Drumstick since way back before Port Adelaide was even thought of being established. #HistoryAndCulture

I googled "Things to do in Richmond" and got incredibly excited for a moment because it seemed like there was a rich history of architecture wonders to explore like this bridge establised in 1823:

Then I remembered that is the good Richmond located in Tasmania. So I refined my search to Melbourne's Richmond to see what I could fi... oh dear

I got a coffee there after surfing at 13th Beach. It was still hot when I got to Brunswick.

What does it say about Toowoomba?

"Prevalence of electric heaters
Melting
Essendon supporters "

Microphones work weirdly there. Strange radio frequency issues. I think some of the population are trying to contact aliens.
No wonder Geelong players don't live there.

They can tell I'm from Melbourne because I'm not overweight and I don't wear oversized tee shirts or hoodies.
