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

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.

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???
