The Perth Thread

[The Speaker]

How the **** do you have over 16,000 posts in under a year?

that is a good question

 

[Scotland]

Richers don't want a bridge going into the GT.

 

[Teriyakicat]

You're selling it a bit short.

There are at least 10 crossing points, and multiple bridges in some locations.

Sorry
I'm not very good at selling bridges ...

 

[Teriyakicat]

How the **** do you have over 16,000 posts in under a year?

By writing lots...
And fast...
There goes another one!

 

[John Dawh]

Richers don't want a bridge going into the GT.

For good reason. Before you know it, those unwashed poor kents from Attadale will be robbing their houses.

It always amazed me that Peppermint Grove has it's own Council.

It's like everyone living in Claremont and Mosman Park are too poor to be allowed to share the same LGA

Elitist central. Peppermint Grove is hands down the nicest suburb in Australia. Shits on Toorak, Mosman and Bellevue Hill. And anywhere in Brisbane or Adelaide doesn't come anywhere close.

And as nice as surrounding suburbs are, it's a different feel to neighboring Cottesloe, Claremont, and Mosman Park, so they probably do need their own council when it comes to building and development.

My brother lives like 20 metres from the Peppermint Grove boundary in Mosman, so close yet so far

Getting back to the DLS debate. Why don't people just create there own daylight savings if they want to?

Some companies do flexitime. A friend of my hubby's is a stockbroker and he starts at something like 5 in the morning, so he's ready when the market over east opens at 7am or whatever. Then he's finished by 2pm or so.

When I'm working in Perth, I'm on flexitime.
I normally start about 6 am and finish about 3 pm. If I've had a party for one the night before, I'll start about 8 am and be home by noon.

 

[Teriyakicat]

I like your after-party working hours

Monument, Solomon or Palmerston?

 

[Gough]

Peppermint Grove, sounds like you're living in a suburb named after a Roses chocolate.

 

[Freofalcon]

Its named after the smell their farts make.

 

[Kram]

Monument, Solomon or Palmerston?

I think it's Bond street off Monument, actually looks more like 50m away.

The house is directly across the road from where that woman got murdered

Named after the Peppermint Willow trees that originated from the area. They are a nice looking tree and smell like the farts of the locals.

Who was murdered? I used to know 3 dudes (2 were bros) who lived in that street.

Wouldn't have happened twenty metres down the road.

They really should build a 50 foot steel wall to protect Peppermint Grove from the surrounding vandals and brigands

 

[John Dawh]

Mosman Park has it's bad pockets. Battle St had to change it's name because it's reputation was so bad. Then there's the area around Wellington St and Stirling Hwy which was heroin central for a few decades. Lest not forget the notorious Cottee Boys either.

 

[Underdog]

Those Cottee boys were bad news...

 

[Silent Alarm]

Any gang that are called "boys" are gay

 

[John Dawh]

I think it was spelt Kottee but pronounced Coddy. Lot's a people scared of them in 80s but I thought they were ok. Over rated in the toughness stakes.

Pffft, 'sif you'd stand up to The River Boys...
