    Melbourne most definitely works on contacts. To some extent everywhere does but when I moved over here it was so noticeable. There always seems to be to be something cowardly and closed in that. If you move in circles you stay in circles. But in a way there is a very new age thinking that reinforces that. You are who you mix with or something like that. Seriously that is so snobby. I couldn’t care that much - there are people who were born into what my mother would have called working class who make money and that money gives them cause to take on airs and graces. Doesn’t necessarily make them a better person though. Likewise the reverse. They say manners maketh the man. Not sure what Maketh the woman.

    anyway in response - so many things become unfair - I agree. Labels. Boxes. typecasting. In groups. Out groups. I really don’t like it.
