I kept an observing SA's news outlets for about a month after I left before simply forgetting the place existed. Due to my shoddy PC backup skills the posts I was planning to write are now lost to the ether so not really sure where to go from here.
I will post a copy of Adelaide's thematic history shortly, which was published by the Adelaide City Council and is an interesting read.
One thing I still haven't managed to put together is an opinion piece, which was the entire point of this blog.
I have however come across a series of opinion pieces written by Malcolm King that I have found to be very honest and truly though provoking; he has basically put across the same sentiment I had in a very original manner. I have seen this poor soul berated mercilessly & ignorantly for his articles published by Indaily and a online forum called Sensational Adelaide, which appears to be a meeting place for the very people who are in inadvertently holding Adelaide behind.
Luckily Adelaide has managed to delay some of the blows to its economy that I had mentioned in the last post.
An extra special thank you to Drewbee for your comment last December, much appreciated :)
