Bankstown of old

[Memberberries]

My favourite bridge is shown in this clip.

Im trying to find pictures from the late 1980's with the old coles and fish ponds.

My tightass Yugoslav grandmother always felt the pinch when I hit her up for 20c for pellets to feed the fish.

How many old wogs told their grandchildren off for asking for a measely 20c?

Looks like not much has changed in Bankstown? Lol

Bankstowns gone backwards haha. Nice vid

Saw this a little while ago... little bit before my time, but a cool look back at the past no doubt...

It's funny, my mum talks about how her father was ill and the doctor suggested they move to a rural area, which in his day was surrounding areas of Bankstown

I hate that damn bridge. It was too narrow for the cars underneath it. Good thing they revamped it a few years back.

Everywhere has changed for the worse in the last 10 let alone 20 or 30 years.

My grandparents lived in Campsie/Belfield their entire life. As kids we'd sleep over weekends at their house and walk to Belmore Sports Ground for the games.
