One of the things I like about living close to the city is that there’s always something on to amuse the kids, and often within walking distance, or at worst, within reach by public transport.

Last weekend North Sydney Council held a Children’s Festival at Civic Park. This involved bands, performances by local groups, arts and crafts, baby farm animals, and snakes!

Late one night about four years ago, while searching online for information about the old White Bay Power Station at Balmain, I chanced across a piece of creative writing by a man in his early 30s. It described how he and a girlfriend broke into the abandoned power station, explored its bowels, and were almost caught by security guards.
