I removed the somewhat fuzzy regions of Blue Mountains and Central Coast, where small towns of just a few thousand people are merged into much larger metropolises. I hope the regional boundaries aren't too arbitrary either, like I mentioned in the caveats these are not administrative divisions of NSW by any means.

Thank you once more :)

The quiz description was too long, so it wasn't eligible for nomination.
