No worries. And i apologize for getting on 'ya. It's just annoying as hell when you see it all the time. (For the record i lived 2 yrs in Seaford and have never seen so much crime first hand in this country or the last one. couldn't leave quick enough.) As Gail said, never seen any trouble in PC in 2 years.....with the exception of the arson attack the other week on house which was a family dispute apparently ;) )
Ok let's start over:

I did say I DON'T KNOW ABOUT SUNSHINE and then merely said what I'd been told by some Melbournites. It's for everyone to do their own research.

The problem here is what you heard might be (almost certainly is) mis-information by uninformed people. Someone on another thread said it best, "It always rains in Manchester" sums it up nicely. Got news for 'ya, i had a perception that Aussies were all about mateship and a fair go, i believe the reality of that (particularly in the workplace and definately with regards to "Generation Y") is a direct polar opposite. I guess we shouldn't believe everything we hear eh? :)
With regards to everyone doing their own research, these forums are a big part of that research which is why i'm kinda anal about correct, informed, first hand opinions being delivered. When someone gives a request on an area i never offer an opinion unless i know about it. That way i don't perpetuate myths. ;)
I guess the point i was trying to make is, in your initial post you've requested info. on certain areas. You wouldn't want people giving you said information when they don't know the first thing about the area would you? (But thats what you did with wendyc74). Not just you kiddo, i see it all the time and it really bugs the hell outta me (as you could probably tell! :) )
Hope we be cool.
