Default One for the Territory!!!

This is a bit of tongue in cheek poke at big city dwellers. A few of the reasons us Territorians live where we do.

You can pretty much apply that to Melbourne too.

I love Kylie's writing. You should read the piece she did that got her into the final three Australian wide stories against two journos from the Australian Newspaper.

She is the editor of the Sunday Territorian.

That was funny piece of writing. Even funnier were the self-righteous and indignant replies from the Sydneysiders down the bottom! I can imagine them poking furiously at their ipads while drinking a double mocha decaf soy latte with froth while wearing covered in shoes.

Meh... Born and bred in Sydney and hate wearing shoes ;) Hate anything Apple and have my coffee with full fat milk and heaps of sugar.

Must be something wrong with me??









My shoe of choice is either crocs or sandals. If they are more than $10 a pair I'm not interested!

They are also ideal to stop small bottles of grog from getting damaged ;)



Only thing I really hate... putting sun screen on my feet ;(



I think I would fit right in in the NT???
