I have a new Tshirt, “Vibrancy Inspector”. No Alcohol, New Years Eve, Cottesloe Beach, That’s Perth. However the “Perth The Bunbury of The North” is a clear winner with buyers. It is a damn good design I have to say. I don’t know why the Bunbury Tourist Board isn’t buying it in bulk. There are some new greeting cards available too, including the sinster burnt out miniature village and no alcohol. Tshirts and cards can be found here.
What says Christmas like a burnt out Hansel and Gretel cottage?

Prohibition and an extension of police powers having, of course, been such a resounding success in stamping out drug use everywhere it has been tried.

Frank, can you confirm whether it will also be illegal to sell small OJ bottles, aluminium foil, and 20cm lengths of hosepipe? What about cans and safety pins, or any pointy object.

I used to work with a guy who made bongs out of apples. Any word on fruit bans? It seems to me Donnybrook is potentially infested with smoking implements. And what if a bong merchant wears a jacket & tie – does that cancel it out?
So many questions.

I once spent an alcohol-free New Years at Cottesloe once – think it was one of the first years they had the policy in place.
The night was punctuated by shouting matches and even fist fights between tracky pants-wearing Transperth dwellers of all shades and an incredible display of unnecessary force by the coppers, who chased some dude down the road and tackled him face first onto the pavement. Think he was selling ecstasy or something.
In short the worst NYE I’ve ever spent, dunno if alcohol would’ve made it less or more violent but it definitely would have been more interesting.
