And may I also suggest his attempts at sounding streetwise and really unpretentious could well be seen as the worst of perth pretenders.

WordPress.com are another of these government arts agencies with their OWN highly selective views on who and what is appropriate for the perth arts scene.

I think I must have seen a different yokine baptist. it wasn’t much to look at. The yokine anglican had a paint peeling hall attached to it.

Julius W Elischer (yokine) was one of the cities finest architects, hence the joke you should include his churches in the worst list. To put these works in hte worst list is essentially heracy! And st. cecilias architect(raymond jones) is one of the cities finest and most influential post war architects in the city. yikes. and bore water stains rule. perth doesnt have much unique features, bore water stain orange is one of them.

It looks even better in real life. Not worth believing in St Cecelia mind, but not bad at all.

Like putting on a giant pair of those awful bollés or would it be like drowning in ‘bore water brown’?

Actually in all honesty the worst of perth should be mostly considered 70′s through to 2005 the era where the grossest things have been allowed to happen and when perth people should’ve known better.

Needs a big bubble in the middle that floats left and right!
Nice lighting,and good angle Laaaaaze! Looks a bit like Southern Comfort or scotch & coke!!Might make an interesting aquarium!
