I don’t know anything about Grimsby, where Eyelids Pattinson was born.
But I know a little about Dandenong, where Pattinson is from.
It’s an outer suburb of Melbourne, about 30 clicks from the CDB, and a long, long way from the Northern Suburbs in distance.
A guy from Dandenong is called a dandy boy, and it is one of the few occurrences in the world where a straight man can be called this and it is a positive.
Dandy is a multicultural hub, like most poor working class suburbs in Melbourne. The people who live there are quite often referred to as bogans.
To call Eyelids a Dandy bogan roofer, may not be far from the truth.
Another thing about Dandenong I noticed was it was always very well roofed, must be Eyelids work.
Dandenong has a large shopping district, which is ugly as fuck.
From the train line, you can see the mega sex shop though, which is nice.
Last time I was in dandy I noticed a halal pizza place, which is a great place to find cheap pizzas if you don’t mine not having bacon or ham on them.
It is the sister city of Xuzhou in China, but it’s not likely that Xuzhou admits to this.
According to Wikipedia it’s two most famous residents are Kliment Taseski – member of the Melbourne Victory football team reserves and Gabriella Cilmi – Teenage singer now based in the UK .
Clearly has not been updated.
Dandenong station is one of the scariest train stations in Melbourne, and is the station you are most likely to be assaulted at according to crime stats over the last 10 years.
On a Saturday night there is generally a couple of hundred of angry looking teenagers of various cultural back grounds at the station, none of them ever seem to travel anywhere and they all look angry.
To top that off, there is usually mormons there as well, trying to convert the angry youngsters into being soldiers for Christ.
I spent a few late nights waiting for the train there, scared stiff of the mormons, watching the Indian students, who were scared stiff of the gangs.
Great place, Eyelids will be sorry to have left.
There is also something called the Dandenong factor, but it was never really explained.
