One day when i'm game (and have money) i'm going to get the Gatecon 'Real Gate' logo tatoo. One Day (*Dreaming*)

 

[ShelbyS]

Kick Ass. That's awesome, Allan.

Hey allan, go over to the chitchat section and help me defend Canberra. Cat is bagging us out.

 

[Cat]

Hey, I can do the same thing here if you like

Save you the trouble of going over to chit chat. Let's just keep going off thread here. Marty hasn't gone crook on us for ages.

 

[ShelbyS]

Actually, he was doing some actual moderating the other day. (I'm scared). So we might have to keep it in Chit Chat. Besides, Cat is just scared that there are 2 Canberrans now and we can gang up in the lowly Tamworthian (what the hell do you guys call yourselves?)

 

[Cat]

Do you honestly think you can gang up on me ?!?!?!?!?

I don't think so.

 

[Martouf]

yep, cool an actual conversation not about MS or RDA!!! WHHOOOO HOOOOO!!!!

things have been boring lately so there's nothing to do but screw around with threafdfs and move them to unknown places no one ever goes

 

[Cat]

Sorry, marty, I forgot to mention that RDA and MS are both really cool, but RDA is better.

That okay?

DEBORAH!!!!!!

 

[Cat]

CHRISTOPHER !!!!!!!!

 

[ShelbyS]

Now, now, kiddies. Let's not yell at one another.
By the way deb, you didn't answer my question, which is it:

Tamworthians
Tamworthites
Tamworthans

What do you country folk call yourselves up there?

 

[Cat]

Hey, I might have been shouting but it was done with love and affection

As for Tamworthians, well we're just "people from Tamworth" or "people who saw the light and got outta Sydney". There are lots and lots of people who have moved up here to escape Sydney.

Now, I'm not saying that I hate Sydney or anything. I was born and raised there and didn't move away until I was 24. I love the place ...... as a place to visit. So that I can then come home with my views across the valley to the Duri hills (I live half way up a big hill in East Tamworth) and all the benefits that come with living in a city of 55,000 people surrounded by beautiful farming and grazing land.

 

[Martouf]

hehe, i'd just liek to say how beautiful (i can't believe i used that word) the country side of vic and NSW is, especially after it rains!!!
we saw some good scenery when we visited those places about 5 years ago

 

[ShelbyS]

I agree, in fact I think all of our country is beautiful. We are very lucky to live where we live. I especially love the Dandenongs in Vic. They are so beautiful.

 

[Martouf]

the great ocean road it beaut!!

i suppose even SA has some nice parts of ity!

 

[ShelbyS]

Oh, I love the great ocean road. The Blue Mountains are great as well.

 

[Cat]

those forests in the dandenongs are superb and I love the Blue Mountains too. I spent alot of my childhood wandering around there.
