There are some things you only know if you’ve lived in Brisbane for so long.
We wanted to know what makes Brisbane Brisbane. So, we put the feeler out on Facebook the other day, and on Instagram a while back, to get the lowdown from you, our followers and readers, in the form of “Tell Me You’re From Brisbane Without Telling Me You’re From Brisbane”.
For those that didn’t see it or actively refrain from reading the comments section on social media, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite responses.
