I would of said that Lilydale, Belgrave and Pakenham is the edge of Melbourne out to the east

Exactly, that should be the hardline Eastern boundary of the Melbourne metropolitan area. And I am just about an hour east from Mt Dandenong, haha.

@Josho Does the Yarra River form the boundary at all?

Why not google "Melbourne, Australia," and look at a map first before asking a question which shows your ignorance. Better still why not create a poll.

Sky news is the place to go for journalism that is not filtered by the looney left...
A young fellow by the name of Martyn Iles does a great show called "The truth of it" which looks at current news from a Christian perspective



Can u please elaborate on what you mean by this...
"such great evil is taking place nowadays that is beyond anything that our Nation has ever did by far"
Cos i don't know what Australia is doing that hasn't already been done in the USA or the UK.
Allowing gay marriage would be one of the most wicked things iv seen our government allow, "safe schools" is right up there too

I think it's the same thing is happening in the UK and USA, but as to the shame that we are forced to swallow about our Australian past, in reality does not even come close to what is now on the cards being done nowadays, as L Shelton explains all about, one point is gender surgery and all that is involved in such a topic, boy that is a huge subject in it's self to explain everything, I am not going to start about all that but it is a huge blight on our generation and one day just this will be truly exposed for what it truly is doing.

Nowadays we have people in shock about treatment of aboriginals ranting and raving about points that they do not truly understand the stark reality of the times in them days, so they are totally ignorant of the reality faced back in the days, because no one is allowed to educate them, for if one did you would be crucified, for just speaking up on such a subject, they do not want to know the truth about the reality's, but only the injustice on the face of it is exposed and the simpleton's swallow this all 100%.

We in fact have the most pathetic generation ever now in the history of Australia and that's a fact, the younger generation are so shallow that they are a disgrace, a blight and a curse. they have the hide to bag the generations gone before them, they even have been mislead into be claiming to be sorry for generations of the past, fact is no one can claim such a thing in fact, especially when they do not have a handle on the reality of the situation of them days, so we had a socialist play their games on the people painting a picture, for shallow ignorant dolts to swallow.

L Shelton talks about the safe schools curse that is trying to corrupt our children and the total con job that we were fed on gay marriage that they played on the people and all that is involved in that rubbish.

We are being led astray on so many issues, and the main point in all this is that we are not allowed a voice, if we try to bring up an issue we are threatened with what ever the Satanist can try to use, they use malice they are totally content in destroy ones livelihood, if you challenge them in any way.
The Devil is in the detail in all such workings and yes the Satanist are clearly in control. this generation is under a curse, they are blighted and they will get what they deserve because they are pathetic, because they have been lead astray by Socialist swine's the filthy disgusting degenerate grubs.

Hi Farouk. The Yarra river doesn't form a boundary, it runs through his district.

I was working with a guy who was about 26yo.
One day I started to tell him how pathetic his generation is but his response kind of shut me up. He said its not our fault, it's your fault.
How... Well it's the baby boomers and gen x that taught gen y and gen z. And he makes a valid point, his parents and all his teachers are older.

These minority radical lefties have been allowed to gain control of education. The media too.
You'll be hard pressed trying to find a conservative school or teacher. Even the Catholic schools teach a form of liberal Christianity.
Most people under 40yo agree with it all, nearly everyone under 30yo does. Another 5 to 10 years and us oldies will be outnumbered.

That's why i want to move out to country one day, away from the madness of the concrete jungle and closer to nature, to God.

Surprise surprise a road block is just outside Coldstream, that's 40 minutes closer to the city than here. There's really not much information where the other roadblocks are at the moment.

It's pretty confusing mate.

Melbourne is the name of the capital city of Victoria.

Then you have inner Melbourne which basically goes 10-20km around Melbourne city, and includes all the suburbs in it, even that's not even an accurate definition though, and then some may include places 40km away in the definition of "Urban Melbourne", and then there is "Greater Melbourne" which includes 31 LGA (Local Government Areas), the Greater Melbourne region stretches as far as 160km to the north-east from Melbourne city to the Yarra Ranges shire boundary which is at Matlock, but Greater Melbourne only stretches out about 35km to the west to a town called "Little River", and about roughly about the same distance to the northern boundary, in Southern part of the Greater Melbourne boundary, is the Mornington Peninsula, which meets the Bass Strait, and Portsea is 109km from Melbourne City by road, but it's still considered part of Greater Melbourne, so that's the great distance to the southern boundary, the south-eastern boundary goes out to Pakenham which is 53km from Melbourne, and the Eastern Boundary goes out to between Powelltown and Noojee which is 85km.

They define Melbourne's population by the Greater Melbourne population, which is not very accurate, in reality 5 million people do not live in Melbourne city, many of them live in the surrounding suburbs in inner Melbourne, there is also quite a population in the Eastern suburbs of urban Melbourne, and some in the western suburbs of Melbourne, but there reaches a certain point in the East, where not a huge population lives out past Lilydale, and the biggest towns out past there still consider (Greater Melbourne) would be Healseville or Yarra Glen, with Healseville's population being 6,567. That would be considered a small town in UK or USA and under 4000 residents in Yarra Glen. The towns past Lilydale are spread out more, and there are plenty of farms in between.

As Cristo Rei shared earlier these are the boundaries of Greater Melbourne, the Yarra River starts roughly where I put the red dot, it starts in the wilderness in between Matlock and Tanjil Bren, then it flows into the Upper Yarra Reservoir, and the Yarra river continues from there all the way to the city. And from what I know, it just about starts at the boundary, but I don't think it really forms the boundary, a little section might, but that's only a really small part of the eastern boundary of the Yarra Ranges.

The town of Toorongo is the far lower eastern corner of the Yarra Ranges Shire. And that's 151km from Melbourne city but is still considered part of the Greater Melbourne region since it is in the local government area of the Yarra Ranges shire.

 

[Josho]

After saying all this, @marksman is probably thinking that is crazy how far Greater Melbourne's boundaries stretch, they are too far stretched in the Eastern part and North-Eastern part that's for sure. . In reality, many of the towns in the eastern arm of the Yarra Ranges should not even be considered part of Melbourne, considering the distance.

 

[farouk]

@Josho, thanks!

So Yarra refers to mountain ranges as well as a river...

I appreciate your full answer to my question.

I remember my elder brother first boss would say to him, regardless of anything, "That's no excuse !" it just did not matter.

Passing the blame just does not wash with me at all, if anyone said such to me I would not give in to such as that excuse.

Yes I know the Roman Catholic schools do as such, I seen it all with my nippers going to such.

I remember the days when PM Paul Keating was claimed to be a Socialist by Premier Sir Joh and the media claimed to Joh, you can't be serious ! and Joh said, He is nothing but ! media said the Keating would deny that. Media said how can you tell that he is, and Joh explained.

Back in the past many people had a healthy disregard for Socialist even the Labour Party was ant-Socialist as was my grand dad and dad Labour voters until the Socialist snuck into the Labour Party and took it over, slowly bit by bit they emerged showing their true colours, I find nothing wrong with the Labour support for working people. but it's the cunning and stealth of Socialism that I despise because it is truly Satanic.

The Socialist are masters of manipulating the masses through media, they make claims that are not truly their objective but work to lead astray all much like Hitler the greatest Socialist did, playing everyone for fools. the Far wealthy Right wing do much the same in business as to trying to keep people down. so nowadays we see many of the very wealthy in bed with the Socialist. they are on the band wagon.
Socialist lefty's demand that everyone is equal, that's the trick ! equal nothings is what such become and the far wealthy right see opportunity in this and they know that their is no such thing as anyone being equal. as their is always a ruling class regardless be it Communism, as they also have a class system in fact that is full of fat cats and then the rest are equal no body's, just all only useful idiots enslaved by Satan.

Socialism is slavery in fact but it's pretending to be your good buddy, until it enslaves you all.

Agreed

 

[marksman]

Oh mate, they are developing like crazy in West Gippsland, I even saw they have some developments going on around Neerim and near Jindivick I believe.

That will be the end of life as we know it. Such beautiful countryside to end up a housing estate.

A couple of times now ive gone to look at your area and im looking around Mt Dandy before realizing your way, way past that.
That's not Melbourne. These areas i've never even heard of; Yellingbo, Nangana, Woori Yallock, Millgrove, Wesburn and the rest.
I thought Mt Dandy rolled onto the divide but its really a solo hill with no mans land behind it

Has not the area you live in had 31 or so cases of the virus according to the stats that I have seen?

If you look at the % w.r.t. to the population densities of the areas in Vic, the Yarra Ranges area is probably just as high in the probability stakes as the Greater Melbourne area for cases of the virus because the yuppies also live amongst you who come up to their weekenders to get out of the big city.

Shalom.
