Hello Billy, Drummoyne I've only ever gone past on the bus, till recently where I went to Mcdonalds for dinner. (P.S. don't get the onion rings there). I liked what I saw so I am happy your doing a tour of the area. Its nice to explore this side of town. I do like this with its older factories and shops on the main highway there. I think there are a lot more houses in this area than apartments, although I do like those new ones on the highway that go the whole block. I been to Birkenhead Point but only on the ferry and only to the shopping outlet they have there, its nice to walk around the areas. I find you get a lot more out of walking the areas than if you were doing it by car. I hadn't realised that Birkenhead Point was that close to Victoria Rd till recently. I didn't know there was a pool under the bridge. Is that public? Looks nice from up there. You've done a really nice long walk here I've enjoyed it again. Cheers for now.
@@craigbrown9029 hi Craig - yeah I think I’ll give the onion rings a miss - Drummoyne has a lot to check out including plenty of parks and walks to do so maybe I’ll do a walk from Rozelle and around the Drummoyne shoreline - gets busy around there on the weekend with walkers and joggers and there are also sports fields along the shoreline used for soccer etc. Definitely more houses than apartments - I’m presuming there are pretty tough restrictions on development in that area due to people’s visual views . Some pretty nice homes and buildings around that’s for sure. Yes the swimming pool is public - any one can go , it’s listed as one of the best pools in Sydney because of its location . Just get off at the first bus stop after the bridge . Cheers Craig 🙂🙂
@@encara1 haha… yep seems that way , i usually film places between 11.30 and 1.30 during week days ( not always) and some neighbourhoods are buzzing and some are dead - Some places I understand folks are at work and kids at school and with changing demographics in certain areas there is not many elderly folk either around , sometimes it’s not having a decent shopping strip and some places change on weekends - sometimes it’s just like where the hell is everybody - this is one of those. Cheers for watching 🙂
