The glass sheet on the bus shelter has been smashed at least three times in the last nine months (and who says there's nothing for the kids to do round here?). It would have been a great place to grow up, esp. with Darebin Creek park sprawling along nearby.Alexis, Baron von Harlothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04675225579658733004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492889481663521911.post-69058332834861299312009-01-26T16:48:00.000+11:002009-01-26T16:48:00.000+11:00I really need to have a trawl around Tyler Street ...I really need to have a trawl around Tyler Street and Kinkora Road sometime - parents both lived there as young 'uns.
