Capricorn

Which do you believe, this one, or Brendon Julian claiming that Dunsborough is not a craphole? Capricorn festival sounds like it should be some kind pagan pants off, orgies around the fire type of affair. The billboard suggests otherwise, unless he is a master warlock.

    You think the sign’s bad? Try the website listed on it – http://www.capricornproject.com.au

    The first thing I was confronted with was a picture of a dog’s arse, and the sound of a toilet flushing three times, repeatedly. I’m still not sure what to make of it.

    They’re all fucking nutcases up there.

    There’s about 3000 people living in Yanchep/Two Rocks and they have at least 3 local art groups and an number of environment groups, all of whom are in a state of permanent feuding with the rest.

    If you’re ever up there, cop a look at the local rag. It’s run by a bloke who used to be a local councillor and, at its height, used to be devoted to a) personal attacks on his political opponents and; b) constant bitching about local drivers.

    Having worked up there for a bit it is my fond hope that, one day, the mother ship will return and take the fucking lot of them back to their home planet.

    Only 50 minutes from the city and yet it seems to be a whole other country, a very hokie country…

    Had a look at the website, I can only assume they are trying to atrract the type of people who like dog’s arses.

    Under local Entertainment, there are only two listings – Two Rocks Tavern and Civic Video.

    I thought that there were more parliamentary seats than that !?
    (Though, judging by the still discernible pommy accents of a few of the incumbents, not all of the seats are occupied by natives.)
