Late 80s early 90s?? Whenever Good Weekend did a weekly.

Inconsistently. Haven’t tried for yonks. Back when they were brand new I got maybe 50%.

Wrap arounds a read as speed dealer to me.

I also need one for a job where I have zero direct contact with children. It’s annoying, a cost and data exposure I don’t need, and achieves nothing.

I lived in Wollongong for my Uni days and somewhat beyond. Dangerous critters are unlikely. Boredom is a possibility. It’s not a slow country town but it certainly isn’t a City either. BIG bands don’t play there, indie hits do. A car isn’t necessary, depending of course on his type of work. You can commute to Sydney by train but it’s brutal. Not sure from your ‘native’ wording if his beloved is just Australian or of Indigenous heritage. There are some volatile sociopolitical issues with the latter. Wollongong is an old Steel town, it leans Left and Union, but is far from perfect.
