italians and greeks came over as refuges after WW2 and generally had many children whose children had many children. there are way more lebanese and vietnamese now though.

most of the country has few apparent gays because they all move to sydney which is very gay friendly. Lots of gays from ireland, united states and europe have moved there too.

The Italians and Greeks immigrated in very large numbers. Don't know why, guess it seemed like a good place. They are good people nontheless. As for fags, there isn't any more here than any other country. Funny coming from you who lives in a country where fags can marry.....
No doubt about it...

see, i thought the Greek/Italian migration had something to do with WWII

Australia seems VERY tolerant cuz I remember after the WWII, alot of places hated the WOPS cuz they took all the available jobs from the natives.  For example, my dad want for work in Switzerland and.....um...i'm sorry i lost my train of thought cuz i'm watching pornography while i'm typing this

I don't think they had it too easy but generally the greeks/italians were pretty adaptable...

one example is in melbourne.... the greeks/italians fell in love with aussie rules football which is THE religion in melbourne forget jesus...

once they showed they liked the white australian's game then it helped with the assimilation process a great deal...

My Greek grandfather came out here to AUS in 1925 so it was after WW1 really. Other side is Lebanese and they came about the same time. I believe there are far more Greeks in Melb than Syd.

How gay is Sydney? Was driving down Oxford street (main street in city and major gay hangout/pickup) to work yesterday and there were two guys pashing each other right next to the road. No-one cared.

I jacked off it to it later (no homo)

tony,

how have/did you change the layout of the 2 gyms you took over? did they have classes before?

Good question.

Dandenong: I got rid of old equipment that did not get used, got rid of old cardio gear. There was only 4 old treadmills and 4 old bikes so it really lacked any mainstream or female appeal.  We put in about 20 new treadmills, 6-8 x trainers, 6 bikes, 6 recumbents etc. IN the gym I have added about 6 hammer machines and updated most of the 1 inch weights with olympics weights and benches. Still a work in progress.

City: Got rid of all classes, destroyed aerobics room, pulled out old wooden floors and replaced with rubber floors. Threw out 100m2 of rubbish (5 X 20m skips). All new plumbing, all rewired, painted all 4 vaults, (320 litres of paint.). New hammer strength and flex pieces, Built new boxing ring and made a whole vault into boxing room.
With the 2 vaults now it is Vault 1 - Boxing, Vault 2 - Cardio, Vaults 3&4 - Weights.
Still a work in progress.

Brunswick, have renovated and painted the whole inside, rebuilt boxing room, added more equipment, given even more atmosphere.
Still a work in progress........

Well Tony,as you know,its great to have a hardcore gym,but as a gym owner friend of mine says 'the money is in 30-40aged women'
You seemed to adapt your gyms to this and I wish you all the best success
