You are right, no way could you survive in Sydney today working 2 or 3 days a week. People struggle today if only one person in a family has a full time job.
Back in the day when life was good and Georges rivers was ACTUALLY BLUE Not...Dark Brown Back when you used to have Picnic's beside georges river and you used to jump in with your Cozzies or from a rope you tied to a tree, or even from a tree branch if it was available Back when you go out on Warragamba Dam and look down the dam Back when African Lion Safari was open and we had Australia's Wonderland and Magic Kingdom and the Zoo was a cool place to be , When going to the beach meant there was a mini train track there with a train ride you could get into that had a picket gate around the track. Back when you would throw 2 or 3 bikes into dad's boot and go on a picnic and when you use to have someone you knew who had a ute and you'd put like 5 or 10 kids in the tub in the back and go for a ride, Back when we didn't use Seatbelts and when we had rollerskates Back when the beach towel was like 5 times as big as your body LOL TIMES WERE GOOD
THIS WASN'T SYDNEY !! the part that was was.. 7:15 to 10:38 I'd like to point out that the bloke at 10:38 who said we should work 2 days a week and not work hard IS DRINKING A FOSTERS. as for Nuclear chick, When has sydney been Nuclear ? I mean there's the reactor at Lucas Heights, but seriously, when has any of that been a problem ? As for Nuclear chick, She's just feeling the effects of the cold war and what's going on in the Soviet , I mean .. Everyone was talking about nuclear war back then, weren't they and.. let's not forget.. the end of the world IN TRUTH.. WE CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DIDN'T CAUSE THE END OF THE WORLD AT THE TIME...................... I mean....... THE 80S WERE BLOODY AWESOME, Why would anyone logically blow it up but yeah , the bit in the middle was genuine, From the old blokes telling stories to the women that didn't mind walking around showing us their tits. Most of this was not actually what sydney was like though, this stuff looks more like it came off a $2 Documentary VHS Video
I was 17, at the time, and I miss that time, I think I miss the feel of that time, along with just being young and having your whole life ahead of you. In some ways it was a more innocent time a simpler time. But I still I think Sydney is a great City and Australia, a great country, the greatest, country, actually by far, (my parents came here from Europe in 1962 and I'm so glad they and I was born in Australia ) and I will always be grateful that they were able to settle here, I will always love Australia I have travelled a lot , and would not want to live anywhere else permanently.
yes see all the Aussies enjoying Australia now all you see is asians and indians Australia is done we no longer have the Aboriginals and english back ground we are over run by other nationalities the average aussie is on unemployment because other nations have stolen the lower income jobs well done Australian government you fucked our beautiful country and way of life
Well, I arrived in 1993 and I’m still here. Sydney has become the plaything of Chinese millionaires, IT gurus, the latest crypto currency fashionista and semi-retired politicians after they collected on their promises to their donors. A real wankfest for the superficial, rich and overindulging.
I have always wanted someone to document the 80's for every pub every night club and every restaurant for me.Dicks at Balmain 3 weeds at Rozelle Guidos at Leichhardt. Arthur's Different Drummer Cauldron Rogues.The Sheath on a Sunday Afternoon my God
How refreshing to hear an intro like that without it having to descend into indulgent exclamations of shame and guilt, bloody murder and "invasion". Yes, it was rough for our original people, but it wasn't all bad and it's just as well for all of us that the English arrived here and not the... ( _complete the sentence_ ).
My first experience in Sydney was 1987, on a rugby trip from Nz, went to Katoomba played there, Wollongong. I loved the experience as a young 15year old. I would move back to live in my 30s to Brisbane Queensland,,Aussie is in my blood, love this nation and its people. God bless Australia 🇦🇺 👍
2024 ...Our corrupt politicians did destroy our way of life . I do miss cheap food, cheap rent and white Caucasian Women, I do hate diversity agenda crap. Slowly taking our Law and land which mostly to China and Middle eastern . Our democracy our freedom of speech will soon be control...by no go zone. Just you wait it's only matter of time. 2024
And 39 years later we’re thinking of nuclear power plants, what’s the difference between mining coal or uranium there has to be another way to produce energy we’ve had decades to work this out, it’s still destroys the environment and what about the waist from power plants, where does that go? Ship it off to the bikini islands? Please give me a break.
I shouldn't have started reading these comments. This type of thing seems to be a honeypot for racists and rednecks. I just enjoyed some pleasant memories of what some of my city looked like back in my early working days. Still love Sydney today...
In 1985, contrary to what you're always told, the population was 93%-95% white, 2% Aboriginal, 3% or so was everyone else. Largest of the everyone else minority was Chinese, but still negligible.
Sorry Lady but those Nuclear Ships didn't cause any catastrophic accidents or kill Millions.... then again Australia is so out of touch with Nuclear Energy we are run by a bunch of morons
Selling australian land and business off to forign countries, shuttting down australian manufacturing... Lefties complaining, bannning and regulating everything out of existance.
1985 I was 6 & when I was 6 I saw this 🛸behind & above a K-mart Ingle Farm, South Australia. Now UFOs now UAPs are gaining some interest & become a money wagon for some who never seen one. 🤑
The issue is politicians have no interest in benefiting australia and connecting the main cities together nor expanding because it does not financially benefit them. Australia has all the tools but idiots using it unfortunately
Some do and for good reason. Although the old guys on Bondi Beach did say it was always getting better. But they lived through WW2, and I expect it would be better in 1985 compared to 1945. Thanks for commenting.
@@gregpetterson true, but when will people realise they shape the environment around them. If things are so terrible now maybe they should look at the world they created for themselves. Ironically we would not have been able to have this conversation in the 80s. We live in a world where people are now better off than they have ever been in the history on man, life expectancy is up, quality of life is up, poverty is down, we have access to more information and ability to travel easier than ever before. People should stop yearning for a past that never existed and look to have a positive impact on the world around them.
