Hi gang,
Just returned home from a hasty weekend visit to my old stomping ground, the Gold Coast. When I was a kid growing up there, it was pretty well considered that the Gold Coast started at Labrador and finished at Coolangatta. Then the Helensvale estate was developed and considered part of the GC. Then Dreamworld/Coomera/Oxenford area was considered the edge of the GC. As I was driving down there yesterday, there was a huge sign on the South Beenleigh overpass saying "Welcome to the Gold Coast". Surely they can't be serious. Someone may be able to enlighten me but that area wouldn't be within 40kms of the Gold Coast City I would have thought.
Your thoughts ?
