The Perth Thread

[davo99]

Just so people know, ended up going to Wolfe Lane for my birthday initially (Teriyakicat failed to show!) but they only served scooners! Since when have scooners been a thing in Perth? They had no Coke too so if you wanted something with bourbon/whiskey, it had to be Pepsi!

It also got really warm very quickly in there so we bailed and went to Belgian beer cafe down the road.

Sounds Hipster.

Just seen on FB that police want the public to stay away on Heirisson Island

Don't want any pesky mobile phones videoing them tasering the aboriginal protestors.

I'm amazed at how many people commute to Perth from Mandurah for work. I used to hate enough when having to drive down the opposite way semi regularly from Perth and that was at least paid being on work's time, screw driving that distance every bloody day on your own time before you start.

Audiobooks. You're welcome.

So what happened to that storm? What an anticlimax, wouldn't have even seen more than a couple mls rain either.

I brought in the washing about 5 minutes ago. Not even a puff of wind. I'm guessing it will ramp up tomorrow as the cyclone approaches.

Storms at Geraldton now I think. So hold your horses Perf punks.

They postponed our FFA cup game tomorrow night in spear wood because of this cyclone. Bet you it was pointless.

Looking forward to the 'I survived the Cyclone' memes tomorrow night...

I am flying in the morning

Hoping it gets cancelled. There is a weather warning for the airport, not sure if it will be enough.

If it is cancelled, I'll be going to see Billy Idol. Olwyn has already done me a few favours with some paid time at home and the pub, hoping he has one more up his sleeve.

Come on Olwyn old son!

 

[bok_party]

Weather seems fine to me so far.

I've been wondering where all this rain is.

Edit: Been downgraded and expect 5-10mm of rain around midday.

Yep, it won't be affecting my flight

I've heard flights have been cancelled this afternoon.

 

[BluesMan]

Nothing in the weather. Massive anti climax

Wheatbelt copped it yesterday but not Perth

This post probably belongs in the "I'm too old for this shit" thread

Spotted three teenage kids dressed as typical 'lads' (runners, sports shorts, jumpers, white hats, you know the look) but all 3 of them had this bit of hair sticking out from under their hats down towards their jawline. Aside from looking ridiculous, since when was this a 'thing'?

No idea mate but looks are getting more and more ridiculous every year.

They've got a fair way to go to rival the seventies tbh.

Just heard that German place in East Perth and the Zapfhall place cant do the traditional 1 litre jugs because of liquor licensing laws.

God these lawmakers are fogeys of the highest order here.

Presuming you mean "jugs" not hugs, isn't a normal jug more than a litre anyway?

 

[Noobz0r]

anyone been to Sneaky Tony's? (and can tell me exactly where it is?)

Near Chinatown.

That is as specific as I'll get.
