Originally yes, but I only admit to it when pressed. I've lived in Wollongong for 18 years and I think I'll be here for a while yet.:fingers:

I've been up north now for 36 years.
My father used to own a waste oil disposal business and one of his contracts was supplying fuel oil to Bulli Brickworks.
He also used to oil down Oran Park and Amaroo prior to race meetings when they were still dirt racetracks.I remember riding with him a few times when I was a kid.
Was born in Bankstown,went to Condell Park primary School and then Parramatta High School.
I can remember Parramatta speedway on Parramatta Rd.
Last time I was in Sydney was about 3yrs ago.I was taken down by Hitachi Construction Machinery for the launch of their latest model excavators.There was abt 200 of us from all over Australia.
They hired out Luna Park and we got to dig holes in Luna Park.
Wouldn't be too many people who could say they've dug up Luna Park:lol:

Still in Sydney, grew up in next suburb to you, Punchbowl. I use to work on the Lions Club Chocolate Wheel at Bankstown station Saturday mornings when I was 15 (1966) to earn a bit of pocket money, $2 for 3 hours. Small world hey, my ex-wife (Lyn Costin) grew up in Fouth Ave Condell Park & went to Condell Park High & primary, she'd be 55 now.

Nope.... but I can say I was standing in the Ghost Train queue when it went up in flames. Still got my ticket with only a couple of holes punched out.
Also used to knock around with a bunch of guys from Condell Park back in the 70's including Peter Thompson (Geoff's little brother) and a bunch of ratbags who had the odd beer at the High Flyer.
They used to hang down at the square until it became an Arab Enclave in the early 80's.
I'm now 15 ks west of Camden & glad to be out of the burbs.

I was from Fairfield but met the guys from Condell Park up the coast one holiday season. There was Peter Saunders (Sarge) Peter Godby (Goob) Wayne Packer (Packer) Steve Lonski etc etc. Got to meet Pete Thompson through those guys and eventually sold him a Fiat 124AC I owned when I lived in Punchbowl in a flat on top of the old United Permanent Building Society opposite the station in Railway Parade (that was an experience).Got to meet Geoff through Pete and face him in the nets at CP public school. Never saw a ball.
