Food, Drink & Dining Out The Perth Thread - Part 2

[Power Raid]

So given Australia was not a nation, rather many "nations" pre settlement. What days did we not invade a nation within Australia?

"It would not be an exaggeration to claim that the Island continent was owned by over 400 different nations at the time of this claim by Cook."

hopefully we can look at the celebration of what has been achieved as well as acknowledge what still needs to be done or what could have been done better.

Saw that today, really sad because its was actually a great one for families to go to. Its a cliche but that really looks like a load of lefty political correctness. Probably feathering the pockets of some mate who will put on some 'culturally sensitive' event wank.

This line sums it up:

There has been a growing movement that January 26 is increasingly becoming a day that is ‘not for all Australians’.

Sorry, increasingly becoming a day that is 'not for all Australians'? The actual ****?

I really hate to generalise, but if its not about money (I dont think, I tend to think someone has gotten in their ear maybe a mate asking for money for a different event) seems a stupid decision. Lots of families loved the Freo version, they would also likely spend some coin down there having something to eat etc.

I applaud Fremantles decision - it's a welcome sign of respect and a step in the right direction

I spent an hour out on the sun for a walk today. Warm, no ****ing flies, mossies, no instant UV sunburn death. Everything just smells better too

winter is good season for bonfires.

I like setting stuff on fire... Going to do another huge pile this weekend.

 

[Plugger35]

How could you not like the weather we've had the past few days? Nice sunshine during the day but not too hot, pity it will turn to shit over the weekend.

Thanks for that mental image of you chucking all the soon to be delisted or retired dockers into the flames.

I'm living on a place with some acreage. Which is being put on the market soon, but needs lots of clearing up. I'm building a new tin roofed lego house in a new subdivision which seems to have got quite a bit of a bad-mouthing here over the last day or two. My Dockers gear remains pride of place it it's own special wardrobe.

Too cold at night and in the morning though. This is a tease. Give me some heat dammit.

Summer is coming.

 

[Smeg Head]

Summer is coming.

And the heat will stink up the place for 5-6 months.

The Aboriginals alive now weren't alive all those years ago. It really doesn't affect them. They have the power to choose their own life and own direction

I deleted my post because this is not the thread for my rant - I enjoy this thread and its light hearted banter and will leave it at that

What a surprise, the Perth thread is full of racism...

http://www.9news.com.au/national/20...ter-painting-son-face-black-for-school-parade

A Perth mother has been condemned for painting her son in blackface for a school parade.

The mother wrote on Facebook her son wanted to dress as his idol Nic Naitanui of the West Coast Eagles and despite being "a little worried" when deciding to pain his face she "grew a set of balls and painted my boy brown".

She one of your relatives?

She should've just played it safe and stencilled 'such as life' on the kids guts and put a crack pipe in his hand.

No racism in that costume.

Well, if he went to school as Nic Nat with no face paint, there'd be an out cry too no doubt.

As it is, Nic Nat is black (or Fijian to be more precise and please to PC folk). Nothing wrong with face painting him.

Its a lot more complicated than that otherwise they would.
