I went to Perf once, it wasn't really a city. It was dull, everything closed at 6pm.I couldn't wait to get back on a plane to the East Coast. The GST is wasted on people with webbed feet who dress in home-made clothing.

Hahahaha, let's see some anger to get this forum 'Back on Track'

And Naarm ?

I went to a RAMs game in Perth in 1997. I can't remember who they were playing. Does that count ?. And they don't have day light savings do they ?. I'm waiting for the explosion.

Thank you for your valuable contributions.

That envy green colour looks great on you.

Fremantle Dickers fluked another win. Its time for a fair GST distribution.

I went to WA once, didn't have time to visit the city as it was windy and sunny every day and the waves were world class. We had so much fun on the water, that by 6pm I just wanted to go to bed and recharge to do it all over again the next day. Had great chats with the friendliest watersports folks on the beach.

Went back to the east coast, no wind for weeks, raining, crappy onshore bumps and I didn't even make it to the beach as the traffic was terrible and there was no park available. Hated it!

Had a mate finally do the trip from East to spend a month sailing and hang out last year, was first trip to experience our 'hot & dusty' WA summer. He cried when he left.

The best thing about WA is it’s a long way from Qld.

Need proof because I am calling bull on that claim.

MSN has never left the Shire.

He surfed the web once looking for investment property in Port Gregory, but that is as close as he ever got to Perth.

Perth is a great place to live.
It is no long the the cultural back water it was in the 70s and 80s.
The only thing that would make it better was if the Darling Ranges where 500-1000m taller. I miss mountains
The main down side are the C.U.B's though there are pockets of civilized society.

What is C.U.B. ?. Is that a WA footy team ?

WA really does ride out the "if it's a 1000ft then its a mountain" definition. Everywhere else, it's called hills. Mind you, I would love to visit Bluff Knoll if I ever do visit WA again.

Yeah, nah! It’s Sh!t. I like to carry a bottle of champagne to drink at the top. That is also sh!t!

I too try to avoid going to Perth, I'm more than happy to have it recede into my rear vision mirror.

totally agree tell your friends and family to keep away its terrible!
