hm, i've had the urge to loot those places myself. i'm not sure where it comes from. perhaps it's a primal thing? perhaps it's wanting to find something valuable which will be destroyed otherwise? the government has condemned those houses on the basis of their location and problem of their physical existence, perhaps their disregard for their human history, emotional existence as 'homes', has influenced me?
I've thought the same thing. Maybe it's not primal, maybe it's just seeing opportunity. The houses aren't just demolished, they're taken apart methodically, so most valuable things won't be destroyed.
lol yeh my dad wanted to nick the copper fittings =p
i'm not moving, i'm losing my job. ain't Blacktown grand? actually it isn't worse then any other place & the 2nd-hand record store near the station is ace. how long u been here?
Blacktown is rather shit but it's been home for 18 years and I was born here and lived here for the first 5 years of my life then moved for a few years. So most of my life has been spent in this place.
Although I don't care about shopping, it will be good when the new Westpoint is finished. If I'm still here it will be good to finally have a decent cinema complex! I've gotten many good record bargains from record stores and pawn shops around town :)
ak that cinema is THE PITS. i work @ the warehouse & that's the nearest toilets open during night-fill *shudder* - the vomit-inducing smell, the questionable stains & liquids...what a treat!
u need to go to those places cos the CD stores are hopeless when it comes to stocking non-Top40.
