Pete F. was late-night shopping in Wembley for pelmets when he stumbled across this.
Miss Taken was strolling home from a slap-up tom yum in Northbridge when she saw this.
And your reporter was walking the Labradors past Alfred’s when he saw these dessicated Odor-Eaters. Part of the horror was being taken back to 1981 at Rossmoyne SHS. There was a scuffle in the line for the morning recess cheesies, punches were thrown – and in the mêlée Mark Robertson’s Adidas came off. People gasped as his Odor-Eaters flopped out of his footwear. All you could hear was the melting of the cheese – and then the taunts began. Lord of the Flies, but south of the river. The violence and cruelty surpassed anything Snuff ever saw at Churchlands. AND we always thrashed them in swimming and athletics.

Not that worst:
While I do admire a bit of free camping the thought of waking up Saturday morning to the Bunnings throng would be a bit much. The trailer – it doesn’t make sence, are they waiting for Bunnings to open to buy the bits to build a house?
Worst:

Sorry dude. You did say Subi in your email. I assumed Wembley as I can never forget Trevor Smith’s radio ads.

Subiaco I understand, Gyppoes with trailers, they’re everywhere, strong correlation with PerthDogging?

Wow, can’t believe I missed the obvious. Makes pulling into the Bunnings carpark for a sausage in a bun a whole new experience.

I had mates in Boulder who brought the Troopy and a trailer to Perth for an IKEA run one Friday night. Snoozed for a few hours in the carpark, went and grabbed a kitchen when it opened and then drove home. Too easy.

Does anyone have any more information on that V. M. Elovalis and Sons building? what it was and what it is now?

The Elovalis building was a bit like an early JB hifi although more geared towards electronics than CDs or records as it was then. Say a cross between jb and dick smith.
Now it is a boarded up building with piled junk old electronica and an orgy of yellowing stacks of newspapers.
I used to pass it regularly on foot and parked behind it on many occasion. It features a garden that largely appeals to the north ridge cat population. To my knowledge it has been in its current state of dress for over 20 years. I do seem to remember an elderly gent checking to see if I was parking across the rear access once.
Why it is not sold, developed etc…maybe an elderly owner and a gaggle of progeny eagerly rubbing their hands together awaiting his/her demise? I cannot truthfully say.
