So far so good, I've moved into the new place in Leura without too much drama. My good friend Rohan, whom I've known for donkeys years, has a truck license and helped me move. Amazingly, I filled up a 2 tonne truck with my shite. Appreciate the help, mate.
Last night I tuned my alarm to some local station. I woke up to some dodgy aussie song about the 2000 Olympics. Like a clean version of Kevin Bloody Wilson, one for the whole suburban family. Then the crime report for the mountians that week .
Some teenagers charged with kidnapping because they jumped in a dudes car and made him drive somewhere. Car parked at the station with handbag on passenger seat has it's window smashed and purse taken. More teenagers arrested breaking into an empty house. Some guy was arrested for being intoxicated and chucking a pole through a police car window.
Violence against police cars? Is that the worst the mountains has to offer?
More and more I feel like it's an area you could probably leave your house unlocked in while you nip up to the shops. In Sydney there would be no fucking way you could do that and get away with it for long.. people getting stabbed, shot, home invasions, torture, murder, random bashings, all sorts of crazy shit to make you paranoid.
I haven't even had a weekend in my new place. This weekend I'll be busy on Saturday, I'm going to a ride day at Oran park! No chance to relax Saturday. I'm going to try and put my knee on the deck. Must remember to get a lap timer.. :-)
