Are we REALLY the very worst, Terry?

Is it just me or does everyone love someone who’ll drag down others to make themselves look good?

A new report – making national headlines http://www.news.com.au/business/money/story/0,25479,23613617-5013951,00.html
portrays the Sunshine Coast as the number one “anti hot spot” in Australian real estate. That is, the worst place in Australia to purchase property.

The author is a bloke called Terry Ryder – he claims the Sunshine Coast is the key link in the Australian drug trade – and a hotbed of political corruption. In fact, he claims if Caloundra City Council wasn’t forced to amalgamate it was in line to be sacked by the State Government for corruption and incompetence. A pretty big claim, if you ask me.

As well, Terry claims Sunshine Coast roads aren’t merely congested – they’re dangerous – citing drink drivers, and idiots like the bloke caught on the Bruce Highway who was steering with his feet…

Terry says he’s never lived in a place with as many bad headlines in the local newspaper (which, for my money, says more about the paper than the city) and our beaches have disappeared. Whatever, I went to one yesterday.

This is the least scientific, most subjective excuse for a "report" I have ever read... I live here - I love it - if no-one else wants to join us up here, that's OK - but trust me, we're not all up here driving with our feet - and I'm pretty sure you can safely get to the shop for a carton of milk.....

Go to University Terry - learn to write a credible document based on properly researched evidence.

Having said my piece - I leave it to you....

I might be a little hypersensitive right now (given that I'm trying to sell a house www.sunshinecoasthomes.com.au ) ...

So let me know what you think...
