  2. Have more info on Adelaide from my mother- The first house we lived in which is the one they bought was on Elwood Avenue [this is the one with the tin roof] When they decided to move back they sold it and rented the property on Corroberie road -apparently this house was smaller but more modern. My mother was real homesick and hated the weather as in those days of course the air conditioning was only in the malls with only ceiling fans in the house. We used to go to an open aired park in Adelaide pitch a shading tent and spend the day there to use the pools. Any idea on this Chaff?

    Yet again not been on the site for yonks. Yes I do know Corroberie Road. Unreconisable to you nowdays . All thev old weatherboard houses with tin roofs are all gone. Very posh place now. May be the place you used to go to use the pools was water world not far from corro road.
