I can relate to all you have mentioned, and I use to dread the sunday drive to Victor Harbor, the retirement capitol of SA, apart from Hahndorf or Clare, not sure of other places to visit on a sunday, you and the rest of Adelaide.
Having lived at Brighton, a stones throw from the beach, I am so glad to have moved out as a certain Gillard woman has moved into the next street, lowering the tone of the area. A former next door neighbour informed me that a letter drop from her round the clock guards have warned people away from speaking to her, and not to bother her in any way.
As if many would feel inclined to waste breathe on that insidious woman, so another reason for Adelaide to get the thumbs down. Brighton is well known as "gods waiting room", but it had train, busses and shops all close, that was its best feature.
