Heidelberg is just down the road from me?
Nice suburb, but plenty of young drunk skanky girls about on a Saturday...

You probably mean "your" one.
The wife used to work for "Heidelberg" here. They made big printing presses. They still around?
No God, No fear.

They seem to be doing well. They have a very fancy pancy building down near the train station I drive by from time to time. ..

I asked because I believe they've been around a long time. I was just wondering how transitioning to digital may have affected them.
They obviously embraced modern tech ... Others don't fare so well.

Even we get the towns mixed up.
My mum said she was only an hour and a half away from Mackay and was just driving through Koumala.
But Koumala is only an hour away from Mackay so I knew she must have meant Carmilla. :-)

Although the view down my street is nice. Takin' a muggy ass walk with the Bananers.
We have our mail boxes on the other side of the footpath.
Your way makes more sense because your mailman doesn't have to ride his bike on the footpath.

RE: How much do you love the town you live in?
I enjoy it well enough, if for no other reason than because it's where I've lived my whole life, more or less. I live in the capital of my country Moldova, which is named Chisinau. I've lived in Bucharest(Romania), in the past, as well as in Vienna(Austria). I absolutely used to love Bucharest, and Vienna was a particularly inspiring city, especially at night. I loved it, but even so decided to move back home at the time, something I sometimes regret. I may soon relocate either to Canada with my brother, or back to Vienna. I'll say more about my impressions then.

It was odd to come out of work at 6am to that.

In the more rural areas, they drive regular jeeps and they have a sign in the back window that says "US Mail"
