how depressing to see such a great idea ruined
most of the companies are long gone if not all
unemployment amongst the highest in the state

No link to an ABC new story, that's what went wrong. Shame on you for forgetting to put a link to the ABC.

Maybe the ABC don't archive 50 year old stories?
And, of course, manufacturing has only disappeared in SA. Except for the vote-buying boat building.

While there is a lot wrong, a lot of what is in the first video is still there and just as enjoyable as ever. You just have to get out and embrace it.
I,ve spent last week staying at Adelaides Glenelg. The Trams still there and a great ride into the city. The grand buildings and town clock are still there and worth a look on their own. On the way home made a split second decision to drag Mrs. blind chameleon off the tram at Goodwood road ( beautiful little historic shops ) and had one of the best lettuce and walnut baguettes with coffee I,ve ever had. And fish and chips on the lawns near the beach or a cold drink on the beach sand at the Moseley as the sun goes down cant be beaten.
Ive still got two of the same era VW beetles ( look carefully - blue one ) in the shed and that kitchen is identical to the one in the old farm house.
The only thing that has changed is that now people refuse to pick fruit coz its outside and actually requires a bit of effort..........
