Didn’t know where to put this, so thought this topic was the closest fit.

The new ad for Mitsubishi ASX was filmed in Adelaide.

How many Adelaide locations can you spot?

Haha, eyesight is declining. That would make sense as I was sure I'd read it before.

Kevin McCloud the host of British show Grand Designs is touring Australia and was interviewed by the ABC. This is what he said when asked, "What is the best-designed Australian city?"

That is so hard. There has been a traditional rivalry forever between Sydney and Melbourne.

I could say Brisbane. It's interesting because I was in Adelaide a couple of days ago and it is really navigable.

What it is, is it's a big square, it's a grid, and it is surrounded by parks. So in a sense you can't get lost, right. It is a beautiful city.

I really love Perth. I enjoyed Perth because it is open, big and there is a sense of space about that place.

I love Melbourne, right? I adore the street cafes and the big Italian culture here and all of that, love it. But I can't find my way around it.

My problem with Melbourne is I don't understand the geography of it. I am sorry, it is just a problem I have. I have to use my phone to navigate me through it.

This is one of the main stories on the U.K. edition of The Guardian website right now.



I know we’ve all got strong options on Adelaide Oval but how good is it to see this kind of positivity from a major English sports journalist talking so positively about the redevelopment and the city?

“Yet the architects managed to pull off the ideal blend of increased capacity (now up to 53,000), spectator comfort and a sense of history, as well as the Bradman Collection in the museum – where would-be Dons can similarly hone techniques with a stump and golf ball. A link with the past has been retained by the hill at the northern end and the famous old scoreboard, built in 1911, will once again tick over this week.”

and

“These may be mere crumbs of comfort for a team still licking its wounds after that nine-wicket thrashing in Brisbane. But if they are looking for inspiration, they could do worse than step out on to the Adelaide Oval and take in their surroundings.”
