Now don’t get me wrong, I love London Court, despite, or perhaps because of how ridiculous the premise was and how out of place it is. For overseas worsters, London Court is a shopping centre built in Olde Englande style, in 1937. From the website, London Court is, “The only walk in the world outside [...]

You know that I generally prefer original material, but there are so many outside links and pics that deserve our attention, I’m going to make Fridays Worstorama Day, where we can look at some interesting snippets of Perth and even world worsts, with perhaps a little more snarkiness than the usual measured [...]

Guest post from Waldek. What is it with these ex Iron Curtain butcheries? This is the second post we’ve had. The First was the Kransky Haven of Dubrovniks.
Waldek, I’m fascinated by the NO…sign in red, which is obscured. No Timewasters? No hawkers? No Vegetarians? What does it say? This is also the second [...]
