Nothing, except maybe a C&B said the worst of perth more than the red castle. Good and bad, ugly and beautiful, threatened and destroyed, with nostalgia up the yin yang.

As long as they’re all one-storey that’s fine by me.

There is apparently a natural spring on site that the developer has to preserve as well.

I don’t think it would be very natural after the years of noxious substances being hosed out of the Castle!

I’d be kind of wary of moving into a shoebox next to the high voltage power station too, frankly.

That spring sluiced away litres of vomit from the likes of Wattsie and Dr Peter Harries PhD. I hope those developers pay the respect it deserves.

fuck the best coffee and fuck the best pizza and pies too. What about the worst coffee? there’s the challenge. Out-of-town, the Leonora Roadhouse wins hands down coz they have 1) cornered the Pablo supply and 2) manage to treat even that fine resource with nary a semblance of intelligence. i wouldn’t have it any other way, of course, but what about in the big smoke? c’mon gentle readers, where’s the truly awful at?
