[edit] Fashionable suburb
What exactly is a "fashionable" suburb? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:137.158.128.106 (talk • contribs) .
- Try "snobby"? ;-) The opening sentence with the word "fashionable" is one of the few parts of the article I didn't write... as with anything on Wikipedia, if you don't like it, you can change it. I agree, it's not exactly an encyclopedic word. Zaian 09:56, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
I just had to sort that out! To whoever inserted the "fashionable" bit, sorry for "down-grading" your suburb:-p I'm sure most Capetonians would agree with me that Greenpoint, more specifically Die Waterkant would better meet the description "fashionable" than Rondebosch. As you said, "fashionable" isn't an encyclopedic word... it's more a matter of opinion; Observatory could be described as "fashionable" by some people. If you're looking for a suitable adjective for Rondebosch, I think "student" suburb would be fair, given the relatively high density of students in the suburb.
[edit] Westerford Highschool in Rondebosch
Is Westerford not in Newlands? Htaccess 14:17, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, according to my street map Rondebosch runs as far as Dean Street along the Main Road, but SACS is definitely in Newlands. Zaian 14:33, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
