Listen "Different country - same high rise problems"
Episode Synopsis
The Flat Chat Wrap comes to you from a whole other country – or at least half of it does – with Jimmy in Saigon trying to finish his fourth novel (writing, not reading).While there he has discovered that there are very similar problems with overseas investors as we have here in Australia.Continuing the travel theme, Jimmy and Sue discuss the proposed changes to Airbnb laws intended to correct the “light touch” legislation currently in place.And we can’t mention travel without referring to Mild Rover which this week has pictures to back up Jimmy’s jaunt with Bafta-winning writer Kieran Prendiville, as well as a liverish look at the best and worst in-flight food services.And finally there’s a touching story by Sue about how an artistic tribute to her late Mum became part of the healing process.That’s all in this week’s Flat Chat Wrap____________________________________________________Flat Chat is all about apartment living, especially in Australia.Find us on Facebook and Twitter and the Flat Chat website.Send comments and questions to [email protected] to ask and answer questions about apartment living anonymously on the website.Recorded by Jimmy Thomson & Sue Williams; Transcribed by Otter.ai.Find out more about Sue Williams and Jimmy Thomson on their websites.
