The Perth Thread

[BALKAN]

Hmmm... How do you know if I'm "yucky"? Or if my cats are "yucky"?
I might be more "Teri-yacky cat"

Just an educated guess.

So are you a man or a woman? Not that it matters but I'm getting conflicting reports in this thread.

Almost at 21,000 and it's not even March.

March, April, May, June, July, August, September until GF day.

30k will tick over before the finals start.

Time to get to 30,000 posts by Grand Final day.

Take the challenge, find something Perth and Geelong related and get a wriggle on.

Meh...
I'm not a challenge taker.

Just an educated guess.

Straight from the horse's mouth?
I am woman.

Teriyaki cooking up a storm! Posting for days!

There was a video on facebook about the giant girl doing a piss... I'm not sure what to make of this.

 

[bkozican]

Already over the giant craze. They are having regular updates on the radio

Did they really need to include that?

Colin Barnett says that there might be a backflip on ditching the late night weekend trains in Perth:

One week after it announced late night weekend train services would be cancelled, the Barnett Government could be poised for a back flip.

Last Friday, the Public Transport Authority announced 1am or 1.15am and 2am Saturday and Sunday morning services would cease from April due to low patronage.
The decision was greeted by a hail of social media criticism and claims from the Opposition it would lead to more drunk drivers.
Speaking on ABC radio on Friday afternoon, Premier Colin Barnett said the decision might be revisited.
“That decision won’t come into factor until about April. We might have another look at that,” he said.

I think 1/1.30/2am trains can be viable.

I'd be surprised if a 1am train didn't get more patronage than a 12am train.

 

[BALKAN]

Anyone check out the giants? I'll be heading down on Sunday.

Perhaps there will be a burst of support as people jump on the trains but then things will fade again after a few months. Note that Barnett hasn't promised anything- and he will probably NOT change his mind as cancelling those trains will save the govt. $6 mill.

They seriously didnt. Completely unnecessary and stupid

 

[Noobz0r]

I'm at the Giants, **** me there are so many people here

 

[Borry]

Yep, especially given their support for the cops to fine patrons for doing so. We have some dumb police over here.

Would be a good night in town - late night shopping, hawkers market and a couple of giants to finish it off.

 

[BALKAN]

Lol @ the Giant pissing

classic giant behaviour

 

[ryan_seb]

Great city, I need to go there soon.

 

[Borry]

They should really have those hawkers markets up all year around, it's not the best by world standards, but it's a good concept that should be embraced.

They do seem to be popping up all over the place now - I actually just came back from our local one in Mt Hawthorn and was a bit disappointed tbh after such a promising start earlier in the year. Every second store and there would of been no more than 10 had pulled pork on the menu - I know it's the new flavor of the month but it's got a bit out of control
