This gives me the fear. Cottesloe beach last Friday night, and it’s made from…seaweed? The prophylactics of drunks rooting on the sand? Or, were the makers despairing at being stuck in Dullsville and dearly hoping an Emirates jet would spot their plea and send help? Pete F. sent this. He wonders if it was some kind of SpongeBob CHOGM thing, or the aftermath of a dugong conference. Too many questions.

It’s very neat.

Perhaps the rapture was partially successful & this is some kind of aquatic ‘I told you so’.

Why commission Winton to write and design the official CHOGM welcome slogan? Surely “you’re welcome” would have been enough.

It’s too neat for Dugongs and too organic for CHOGM.
I love it.

I thought I had found the anti-TWOP today. Then I looked up today’s entry, and now I’m not so sure… Can I nominate a visit to Perth airport as “worst entertainment”?

Goodness.
In the tourist attractions link, they have entries for: The Pinnacles.
That’s it.

I think that’s their twitter feed collection. I hope they’ve picked up on some of TLA’s musings.

Apparently the blog started as a response to this one from London.
At least there’s some ambition there. If only our taxi drivers even knew about “the knowledge” as something to aspire to…

RR: There was a cheesy “Best of Perth” blog, but I can’t find any trace of it now. What a shame. There’s also the worthwhile Perth’s Best Architecture.

Tagging… places? with tags that say
“Dear Perth
I love you”
What’s wrong with the traditional Perth way of showing your love by tagging stuff with graffitied cocks?

A nice concept. I find that I am finding more love, and as poor lisa remarked, a more fundamental expression of that affection, from the comments on this site than I’m finding from any of the “upbeat” and “positive” blogs that try to ring the bells for Perth. Is it a reflection of Perth or of the people who live here (or just of my perspective) that the most sincere compliments about the city and its events tend to be backhanded ones?
