Serial soft focus wallahs Cookster and Outrage Cohen take note of these sharp, poetic, superbly taken worsts from WAtching. A burnt out van next to the drivethrough with an extinguish arson sign in situ? The slanted sunlight, the stauration, the backlighting, the fucking humanity! And I still want fries with it! Hooooooooooeeeeee that’s some good Perth worsting. The best a man can get. Frame these mothers. Did you say Dog Swamp WAtching? Have a Google maps ref?

The Worst of Perth 
It’s on the corner of Charles st and Scabs Beach rd, more like North Perth than Swamp Dog.

I am sorry, what was it you were saying about Gosnells?? Surely Dogswamp has to have a worse rep…. So the folk in Gosnells recycle curtains, at least they are “greener” in their attitude to the material things in life.
Thank you, that was my rant for 2009.
A happy Festive season to you all (wanting to remain pc and all that) and hope that 2010 isn’t as disappointing as you all expect it to be.

Sorry sigga, I suspect Gosnells is second only to Maddington when competing for the ‘worst rep’ title. Although I’m not too familiar with what horror lies North of Perth. (Balga aside of course, and Beechboro to the East)

I actually drove past this a week earlier and there were people in the front seats. Unfortunately I did not have time to capture it.
Yes it is North Perth. While i was there, a shirtless guy carrying a beer carton asked me if i would write to the paper to because it is an eyesore. Fuck the paper.
This is your problem Buckels. So how about a bit more car removal and a bit less latte sipping.

Kudos WAtching, you must have been lurking there for a while to get every angle like that, surely at no small risk to your person.

Does any-one else see a startling similarity between the two red/yellow signs in the background of pic two? Would make a burger more palatable if you could add a wine to the order.

It would be almost this exact spot where I shot these Kingswoods almost 30 years ago. The Vegas Hotel was there. Corner Charles and Scabs Bch Rd. Heh, how funny, I was boasting about 5000 page views.

And the street that can be seen in the Background is coincidentally another ex lazy aussie student slum street, Sydney Street. (92). The place had several fucking Geminis in front of it last time I was there. I should look up 92 Sydney on google maps, but it wouldn’t show the foil lined room under the foundations.

Regretfully, or perhaps thankfully, that van has now been removed but amusingly all the junk is still there.

If this is the place, TLA, it looks like one of those Geminis got bogged on the registered lawn.

That is beautifully shot and yes, it conveys an almost post-apocalyptic feel.
However, although I do not really eat take away, is that van parked next to a Chicken Treat outlet, closed?

Isn’t amazing that they have taken away the beautiful van, and yet shirtless men walk the streets with impunity.
Sort it out Buckels…
