This was a premature OZ Day celebration from Bobby of Maylands, but I hope to have some more shots from the celebrations. Anyone who got shots of vomiting, fighting, or outdoor copulation, send them in, even if involves you. I like the no stopping in this one. That’s the true Australian spirit, drink then defy authority.
Bobby of M says,
hello worst of perthers,
i snapped this picture of a gent in east perth near the commonwealth bank who must have been a bit tired and needed a lie down. i think it may have had something to do with the can of fizzy drink that was resting between his legs. maybe he was diabetic, and was having a hypoglycemic episode, as a result of too much fizzy drink.
either way, i think it’s a worst.
Thanks B.
I don’t recognise the can.
I’m guessing a can of imported European beer from the BWS on 8th Ave. And perhaps a carton of Benson and Hedges in his shopping bag.
Clearly a cricket fan.

Paralytic on exotic beer. A much more satisfied customer than the beer festival goers then and a perfect Australian.

That gravel verge looks almost as downy-soft and inviting as the bathroom tiles I’ve been known to kip on, after a few Amsterdams.

I think that you got confused over the signpost, TLA.
Shouldn’t it be “NO STANDING” ?

Ljuke is right – it is Amsterdam and Amsterdam is far from exotic beer. It’s cheap and nasty. A four pack of those tall 500mL cans sets you back about $9-10.
Similar cans often get left in my fridge by cheap visitors and remain there for months. months!
ooooh yeah!

have you blurred the guy’s shoes as well as his face?
is this to prevent his shoes being identified?
was this an example of your sole discretion?

Yes his shoes and shirt were indentifiable. No-one wants to be known as an Amsterdam swilling street snoozer.

Since when are KT26s identifiable? They seem to be the footwear du jour for street snoozers, as far as I can tell.

perhaps it is just another poor sandgroper confused by daylight saving.

NB, not my video, Cartman’s site has many Perth media clips, including bloopers.

Well you can still go the Romes. Considered quite stylish these days.

One of my life’s greatest regrets is that my feet were too small for Romes while they were still cool (original cool, not ironic cool) – I had to stick with Campus, which didn’t have the blue bit along the side of the sole. But at least they weren’t crappy Firenze – those kids got teased until they developed eating disorders.

Shoes? For children?
Don’t be so ridiculous.
I had my first pair when I finally got to high school:
Hand-me -downs from my elder brother, repaired with bits of leather from a found handbag and resoled (many times) with rubber tread from old tyres/
Aye, we had lots of things in them days……….
