I’m English, my husband is Australian. We live in Newcastle now. It’s absolutely beautiful here. Nobby’s point is my favourite place.
I'm English, my fiance is Australian. We live in Newcastle now. Its fantastic, arrived in Newcastle 2007 as a base to move but never left. We've just bought a place in the inner west, and we love it. Novocastrian through and through.
Yew!!! Lived in Newy all my life and can't see myself living anywhere else... Trying to convince my future spouse to move here, as I would hate to live in Sydney 😭.
Can you lot stop telling everyone please. Tell them all it's filthy and crime-ridden. Keep it a secret.
So many thanks for sharing our history, our people. Mereweather is different today. I remember swimming in the sea pool before highschool with Dad as the sun rose. Thank you, Dad.
I was born in Waratah in 1967 . I have lived on the far North coast for 20 years but I still think of Newcastle fondly. Thanks for the nostalgia.
Hi there.. how are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe?
Thank you for showing us these memories I was only 5 when the floods hit Maitland and it's heartbreaking to watch neighbourhood I grew up in covered in floodwater. I had to go and stay with one of the families in Sydney who kindly opened their homes while mum and dad could clean up the old house to make it liveable again.I can remember standing on Maitland Town Hall steps with water lapping on the second step and being picked up by an army duck to be taken to safety.Lets hope Maitland never sees another flood like that.
Hi there.. how are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe?
@@tomfriend4348 hi Tom I'm well hope you are too.
Good to know you are well.. I’m great dear.. my pleasure meeting you here.. tell me where are you from???
I studied at Newcastle uni in 1999. Still love the whole region in my heart .
I studied at University of Newcastle in 2006. After 12 years 2018 when I been back to Callaghan campus not much difference. But something are got improved. Can’t wait to take my son and daughter visit there again.

8 years ago almost to the day I moved to Newcastle from Sydneys leafy Nth Shore.
About 22 years ago I done a few days contract work at Jesmond and while I was there I was given a day off so I played tourist and walked about Newcastle CBD, what I seen saddened me. Lots of shops and businesses closed or closing down, BHP closed down resulting in what I seen.
In the last 8 years living here I have seen Newcastle trying hard to reinvent itself and find a new identity. No longer a blue collar steel city.
I still go to Sydney to visit relatives and I can say that I am glad to return to my new home Newcastle to help it to reinvent and find it a new identity and a lot smaller than Sydney.
I grew up in Newcastle. My grandparents had a house in Wickham. Newcastle will ALWAYS be blue collar working class town. The reason it’s changed is because ppl like you, blow ins from Sydney. Bringing your designer dogs here and your bad driving habits. Best off you turn back and head back to Sydney forever
Have been living here 2018 have a great time moved from pakistan ...love Australia 🇦🇺😌
Alhamdulillah
Wow, I went to Newcastle East Public School back in 1965. Didn't even know that the Globetrotters were in Newcastle in 1970 let alone visit my old public school. BTW I moved to Carrington at the end of '65 and attended Carrington Public.
Hi there.. how are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe?
I love seeing how it was before my years on earth. Especially Australia ( I wish it could still be like that somehow)

One of my Great grand mothers who died in 1956 was from Branxton ,born in Jerry's Plains . She was a Sheib and many of the family were married in Maitland in the Catholic church. The Family roots go back a long way with four convict ancestors . What i have found that if you had ancestors in the Hunter ,there was every chance they were convicts. my 4x great grandfather arrived in the Hunter after being considered incorrigible in the Sydney colony ..He was 16 at that point and had been in NSW for four years (!) .
Magic. Thanks.
Thanks!
The Prince of Wales stayed with the family in 113 Albert St Islington - the house is still there, a boarding house, and what was the servant's quarters , kitchen, and laundry, are now used as 'rooms for rent' ... it overlooks Wickham Park, a few doors down from the, I think, Wickham Park hotel....
Born in Newcastle in 1965. Attended Wallsend Primary and Wallsend High School. I remember catching the bus into ‘town’ to go the shops along Hunter Street (Waltons, The Store, Pink Elephant Markets) in the days before big shopping centres. I hated Newcastle at the time (1970s). It felt like a very blue collar town and everyone seemed to work at the BHP. Left when I was 16. Lived in various states and finally settled in Melbourne. Would love to go back and see how it’s changed since then.
I think you’d be delighted their now, everyone works in coffee shops and almost no one works in manufacturing, it’s a little slice of Melbourne

I wish there was more of the 90's.
hahaha, like, hey guys, the 90s are pretty sweet, let's just take two years from the 2000's and keep the 90's going for a bit longer. But really, post earthquake/BHP Newcastle became a sleepy run down ghetto.
My names hunter and I was born in the John hunter hospital in Newcastle 😝🌺 its a beautiful place

@@IntrospectorGeneral people having it easier now does not equate to it being better. if anything causes if the opposite effect as we are already seeing in society.
even gramps would agree with that one if he was around to see it I am sure.
Yew!!! Newy/Lake Mac, my beautiful home town 🤍🤍🤍.
one person with this comment What was extremely offensive and obscene about that last bit on the earthquake is the instrusive presence of cameras and reporter from Station TCN-Sydney. They had no business being anywhere north of the Hawksbury River. Newcastle's own Station NBN was the only station that should've been covering the event and Station TCN should've been taking the NBN reports as done by John Church and others of NBN's staff. Even today in 2021, Station TCN-9 still comes up here to make unwelcome intrusions into NBN's territory, usurping NBN reporters, Tyson Cotteril, Sam Burbridge, Steven Mount, Kate Haberfield and Jane Goldsmith's, among others' roles of reporting news of the Newcastle region down to Hawksbury River and up to the Queensland Border.
newcastle has always being going down hill since the earthquake but slowley recovered the set back was when they terminated the rail line
hi there, does anyone know the cleaves family, they arrived by ship in 1864. my great grandfather was the first bus driver in newcastle, then he became a publican and ran a few pubs. he also ran the london hotel in sydney in late 1800's. we know nothing about our history. any help would be appreciated. frederick e cleaves and frederick j cleaves.
Not much on the most beautiful suburb in Newcastle, STOCKTON! NBRC
seeing Sydney news reporters from channels 7,9 and Ten is not intrusive as NBN Televsion never had the technology at the time to cover the whole event so they rely on outside sources
hey! this is our town.
It's here where we're born and bred. I think we have established we are over 40. Cheers.
Be great to have a slightly shorter version as well.
Do you have something against tall virgins?
Anyone know Judith Whitton was a Personal Carer in 1971 or around that time. Barry Mitchell wants to say Hi .
Hi there.. how are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe?

there is no *law* that this CZcams contributer has posted
Nothing offensive seeing channel seven in Newcastle it's quite normal the question is did Newcastle really had an earthquake
You sound just like me, I do not trust anything I'm told by mainstream media, even more so since the p l a n d e m i c!! Regards Mark Rayner.
Newcastle earthquake changed the image of the city

Hi there.. how are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe?
Nothing offensive having channel seven, nine and ten reporting Newcastle
At .53 seconds, they've got the Freemasonry ensigns out. Anyway, that looks like the future Edward the 8th, as Prince Of Wales in the first scene. He must have been the next in line. Since he was never Coronated, and its 2021 now and that was 1920 then there has now been only 2 Coronations in over 100 years. 100 years later and his neice is still going. No ' grand ' or ' great-grand ' about it.
and in 2021..freemasonry in Newcastle runs strong..nothing great nor grand about that...FACT.
@@eyeswideopen3304 Indeed. The regime is still standing, and even if it were not.....
@@eyeswideopen3304Yes, still running strong and the majority are sheep that ate still blissfully asleep. Good to see someone else whose awake, regards Mark!
Not the same after the earthquake
Great to reminisce all those years ago. Born 1943 near Newcastle Town Hall, am now a Lake Macquarie girl. Remembering the flood, earthquake where I was shaken off my feet near the Workers Club. Boy ! Everything was so dirty way back then, coal being the main problem. It has taken a long time to put alternative power in place. Doubt if I will survive long enough to see fully sustainable clean energy. 😊
i think Newcastle has improved since the 1970s

@neil forbes just be greatful that you are getting a new televison station
@Neil Forbes not just in newcastle but all over the world

@@top40researcher31 Thank You! I have seen regional TV stations usurped by the metropolitan stations and even losing their local identities. This was never supposed to happen, but after Bob Hawke's "regional TV market aggregation" *brain-fart,* that's exactly what did happen. And one of the worst offenders, ironically, was a *regional* broadcaster, Station WIN-Wollongong got "too big for its britches" and gobbled up regional stations in Victoria, Queensland and South Australia, yet had the utter *hypocrisy* to endorse the "Save Our Voices" campaign spearheaded last year by Ray Martin, that came to nothing.
@Neil Forbes well there are over alternatives besides television CZcams is the way to go
