Is that what comes up when you google 'most complicated graph in the world'?

No, that would be a psychrometric chart.

No. Big screens in Northbridge could easily cater for that. The 6pm one against France especially.

Can't even remember what that was about.

Ah whoops. Yagan Square's coke can screen for the World Cup in June.

I remember going to watch Australia vs The Netherlands for the 2014 World Cup in Northbridge. Went to The Shed or whatever it was called by 2014 because it was pumping for previous WC matches. Would've been about a dozen or so people there, and the dozen were our group. Very strange atmosphere basically having a whole pub to yourself to watch sport.

Anyone else seen the phone chargers on trains?! Unreal. Feels like I'm in Europe.

 

[Scotland]

They have USB ports on the newest buses, too.

Not sure I'd ever use one given I'm never on a bus or train for more than 10-15 minutes at a time.

Even if you commute from Mandurah or Butler or wherever it is the Joondalup train goes now I wouldn't have thought you'd need to charge your phone over that journey.

I do like the Euro trains with tables, power etc. but then they have intercity and continental travel so you have toilets, bars etc. on board.

How long until some idiot puts their gum in the ports.

Probably because everyone was at the Sports Bar at Crown.

They have had those for a while now and even longer on some of the new buses. I've never seen anyone use them though.

Crown is such a dero joint.

Funny to think back to the days when they had strict dress codes. Then it seemed all of a sudden they realised that any bogan, yobbo dickhead can put on some trousers and borrow some dress shoes and it's not going to stop him from getting shitfaced and punching on like a bogan, yobbo dickhead so all of a sudden jeans and sneakers are okay after all.

 

[Silent Alarm]

I get the train most days back and forth and the other day was the first time I've seen it. And guess what? I used it! I reckon they're great.

I'm printing this post out and framing it.

Hmm a positive Silent Alarm post without a hint of snark or reference to cultural tropes...Imposter?

Anyone tell me what the Alkimos area is like?

It's like waaaay norf.

New houses, new, huge parks, young families, more shopping centres with Coles/Woothworths than you'd think they'd need, excellent beaches with no more than a dozen people even on the hottest of days & lots of land sale areas.

 

[ioppolo]

Not worth the drive.

Nice beach? I’ve been to yanchep and rated it highly, 10 years ago though!

I like Alkimos affordability, in Melbourne at the moment but a w.a. Move is on the cards and Alkimos and yanchep are the areas I like. Kid lives in ridgewood

 

[tigertigertiger]

Which gives me my next question, what is ridgewood like

I started going to Alkimo beach based on a recommendation in this thread. I like the beach there very much.

Here's a heavily edited photo my girlfriend took a few weeks ago. I thought I had more photos of the beach on my phone but.. they're not there.. so we have to go with an edited one:

This article sums up ridgwood nicely. Nice new suburb but with afew undesirables

Alkmios is new, empty and treeless.
