@@davidhusband5022 you hit the nail on the head David. Before Melbourne became, Africa, Nigeria, Sudan, The middle east. And the crime that comes with these Human's and their barbaric religion. It was raining the other day in the North of Melbourne and I said to my friend "Look why are there two umbrellas on the footpath?" She said omg "your Terrible Muriel" I honestly thought they were umbrellas. They were two unidentified human's, Men, Aliens, who knows I couldn't even see their eyes in their full BURQA thingy. 🤷♀️

People watching old videos from 80' and 90's and are happy and excited ., which shows how good those days were. We never watch a future videos with tall Crappy Glass buildings and be happy like this. I would exactly say, all fun stopped between 2003-2006.. and then Started the horror (technology like iPhones and apps and all this shitty stuffs) ..we were even happier when Nokia was there

WOw those were the days, back in the early 1980's going to FAME night club, speakeasy, also chasers and so on doing floor shows at each of those and especially isabella and the perlaidium in St Kilda doing floor shows and getting paid $75.00 per minute,so basically doing a 3 minute floor show at each night club and then spending the $4 buying records at central station when it was at the city square. :) Also can be seen in Tv commercials when Izzy Dye used to do them late night around 1 am to 3 am ?

Geez the old futura must have been an XA as it looks like Kelly or Tropicana green was already 15 or 16 years old back then and they were hand me down cars to the kids when they got their drivers licences from the old man downwards and that’s why not many survived as they were driven and thrashed and just wore out as petrol was still cheap and a non issue and those cars now are worth a fortune for any that survived but back then they were worth sweet F A!
