Hey local folks -

If somebody said they were from...

Drual, Jrual, Durle... D-er-l

Help me out. What is the proper name of the town I'm looking for?

Thx, Mike :)

Yeah, I'm sure it's Dural - north-west over in the Hills District.

Geez, that's a funny question, Mike!

Yep, it'll be Dural, also pronounced Jyoorrell.
Not much there. Nurseries, Hardware stores, Hungry Jacks, but it's a nice-ish drive, as you can go either towards Galston Gorge or Berowra Waters car ferry back to Hornsby.

Thanks all! It is Dural. I met a doctor from there but forgot to get her details...was searching around, but no luck. Hard to find somebody when you only have their first name.

Thanks

Hey Mike,

The only name coming to mind is Dural. Its a suburb out West, in the Hills district, near Castle Hill. Its about another 20 - 30 minutes by care from Parramatta.

Hope this helps.
