Toorak

She left him.

She came back to Melbourne and built herself a house at Toorak, near her daughter.

She furnished it with Queen Anne and Georgian pieces.

Then she sold everything and went back to London and brought back another shipload of antiques.

She was, by any measure, a woman who did things exactly the way she wanted to do them, and did not spend a great deal of time worrying about what other people thought.

Barbara Bainton died on the 28th of May, 1929, at her home in Toorak of a cerebral thrombosis following a fall.

She was 71 years old.

Her estate was valued at 160,000 pounds, a very long way from the carpenter's household in Scone where she had started.

So true.

Okay, I think that what's going to happen is she's going to Melbourne and they're going to rent out a mansion in Toorak.

I know nothing about Melbourne, but I know about Toorak.

You know that

Toorak is where fancy people live?

Whenever I meet someone, I go, where do you live? And then they say Toorak.

I'm like, ooh.

Ooh.

And it doesn't matter if you've 700 square meters of land.

It's not in, you know, bloody Toorak.

It's in Gagebrook.

So it's relative.

yeah are they real no no all fake all fake and what's the what was it he said I can't remember something about the land

yeah on the roof it's the where the smoke comes out of the chimney the chimney fake doesn't work fake adds charm adds a little charm all of this stuff I mean he just didn't care It's really quite beautiful when they go and they try and, I mean, it is, it's David and Galata, when they drive to Lancel Road, Toorak, and they nick the gates.

And then the policeman comes to his house and he says, listen, be careful, mate.

I'm looking after you.

But what we have seen is the downturn is broadening to other suburbs.

But to give some examples, when you look at suburbs like Toorak, we have seen the median house price decline by 25% over the past year.

Even unit prices in Brighton were down 23%.

Hawthorne down 16% for houses.

But two, you know, like...

I don't know if I feel very empathetic with the mansion owners of Toorak.

It's possible that if you wanted to not be invaded, you wouldn't own a mansion that was filled with priceless artworks and stuff, live like the rest of us.

The other policies the Liberal Party are putting forward...
