And those guys were so accommodating, considering I was taking up some of their precious last few minutes. <br /><br />Goldie - Thanks so much - and stay tuned this week as we're going to venture far far away. By the way, there's nothing wrong with big houses - except when they're devoid of character and ugly! To my mind, it's just such a waste when a lovely old home is knocked down and something cookie-cutter and badly designed replaces it. If the old isn't worth keeping, there are so many ways to design a great new home, even on limited budgets. But you know, it's all subjective. <br /><br />Louise52suburbshttp://www.52suburbs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-224835141360424669.post-18951771246757180252010-04-25T23:57:48.646+10:002010-04-25T23:57:48.646+10:00Now that i am finally finished cathing up all thes...Now that i am finally finished cathing up all these weeks into 3 short veiwing weeks (my internet is slow otherwise i could have dont it in a day) but i wanted to say gorgeous photos love how you capture the place. <br /><br />As an eastern suburbs girl i love when you venture out and i can get a first hand veiw of the places that are only names to me. <br /><br />As well I would love if you visited my suburb, Bellevue Hill, amongst the ' McMansions' ( whats wrong with a big house anyway??)are some very special old corners and cute shops.Goldienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-224835141360424669.post-25451683154075272492010-04-22T22:26:11.487+10:002010-04-22T22:26:11.487+10:00Hi Louise,

Having been born in Sydney but growing up overseas I definitely don't know its suburbs intimately. I first heard of Woolloomooloo in Maggie Alderson's great piece of chick lit Mad About the Boy. Reading you blog and looking at your wonderful photos is such a treat. The images of loved ones preparing to part were very moving.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />NicoleFirst House on the Righthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17473940051850187576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-224835141360424669.post-12258815639069967952010-04-22T13:17:09.099+10:002010-04-22T13:17:09.099+10:00Foo!

You have made me homesick for the 14 different suburbs I have lived in during my 21 years here.It's great to be reminded of the wonders our city offers.
