红色部分是1922年的悉尼，人员往返走是走Milson的轮渡，但两岸的生活物资，要绕道Gladesvill Bridge，走铁路线，那时候的火车很慢吧，所以人们最终建了悉尼大桥，从根本上解决了问题，北岸也发展壮大。

先看两个词典上的例句：
When I was beaten by my father, my mother said that I had it coming.
我挨我父亲打的时候, 我妈妈说我活该.

When they lost their fortune, everyone said that they had it coming.
当他们倾家荡产时, 大家都说他们是活该.

我学的这句，是一个小男孩A，报复小伙伴B，让B出丑，之后看到伤心流泪的B，小男孩儿A，又有点心软了，心想是不是自己做的过份了，是不是应该安慰一下B，但回想起B过去的总总行为，确实很讨厌，就又心安了，由此引出下面这句话：
He had it coming ... so there.
他活该。。。没话可说。/ 他活该。。。就这样吧。/ 他活该。。。罪有应得。

I had the art museum coming ... so there.
