Paolina

I’ve no idea what this sign means at Medditeranean Ceramics in Osborne Park. (Sorry Vic). Is it a type of tile? Is it the owner. If the owner why is she topless? I was too scared to go up and find out. In any case, I haven’t posted any boozies for a while. And what is that under her left arm?

Weekend Worstoff 45

What a disapointment that the new West editor wasn’t announced yesterday.Would have led off the weekend nicely. Here instead is a Queensland worst from Stu. More on his site.

And Mr B was not impressed by this Wembley police parking. Maybe there was another Wembley art crime that transcended parking protocol Mr B?

Janine was impressed by an icecream van named Crusty Cones. I think the real worst is the state of the windscreen. Outrageous!

crusty

Vic Demised moved out of his comfort zone (Osborne Park) for a quick trip to the centre of the universe, which wasn’t the forbidden city in Beijing as claimed, but a roadhouse in Lake Clifton, between Mandurah and Bunbury. Thanks Vic.

Et Tu Bluto?

Well, is it today? Will we get to know who will be the captain (or more likely the Little Buddy) on the good ship The West? I hope rumours that it will be announced during today’s Perth Piss Club event are true. Someone better email or call me when it happens.

Killer Bees

3 Pics from Curtin this week. I’ve been going to the tavern since 1981, and I’m still in remedial class. Until I can master tequila…

And here’s a shot from the very tavern. Curtin Student Guild has a very strict Some Smoking policy.

And I don’t know why, but this just struck me as a worst. Killer bees?

See Wanneroo Road and Die

This area has become a bit of a worst hotspot. I won’t be surprised to see crop circles in the McDonald’s carpark at this rate.

As I was on my way to take the shot of the half mast debacle on Wanneroo Road the other day, what should I see but this sightseeing bus also going down Wanneroo Rd! On the right ladies and gentlemen, you’ll see Nandos, and an assortment of flags at various stages of masting. Behold Michael Keenan! Also the very rare  tv repair place. This is a real treat ladies and gentlemen, because the last person to get their TV repaired rather than throw it away, died in 1983. Almost as embarrassing as that awful tram thingy. What the hell is this bus doing here without blacked out windows?

I was intending to go back to that other worst hotspot Beaufort Street, to celebrate the return to posting of The Beaufort Street Bloggers, but perhaps more relevant is that today is The Worst of Perth stalwart and Osborne Park specialist Vic “Main Street” Demised’s birthday. Happy Birthday Vic. Worst well my friend.

Dawn of The Dead

Well this was ill chosen. Must have caused a few blokes to pause at the door. I have been meaning to head down this way for a pic, but Brad did it for me. Thanks Brad. Is this worst art or worst advertising? Might as well be both.

Flag Shenannigans

You might remember a few days ago when we questioned why McDonalds had its flags at half mast for fire victims, while Michael Keenan local Federal member was flying his at full pole. Well yesterday, Keenan was half masting, and Maccas was full poling! Will somebody get some flag consistency on Wanneroo road! What’s going on? Think of the fire victims! Regarding flags, I hear that the PM has said that flags will fly at half mast every year on this day to commemorate the fire. Really? Every year?  Doesn’t that seem a teensy bit over the top? We’ll run out of days if we keep that up, and everyone will have to be at half mast all the time. It would help McDonalds and Keenan get it right though.

Weekend Worstoff 44

Cock. Some Leederville Graffiti from Rawk Star. I like that they did the seriphs.

week44cock

And balls. I know that we’ve had these before, but they are now so old that they may be worst again. I always thought they should be massive. These just don’t hang right. Thanks Nigel.

week44balls

And Vic Demised just doesn’t like this Nandos ad. It doesn’t make me want to buy food, but they have had worse I think Vic.

And Mr JC thinks the council is skimping on letters for Scarborough beach Road. I thought they used to use Scrbr Bch. Thanks JC

Hell in Helena Valley

Lovely shots from Ms K of some amateur sculpturing in Helena Valley. Somehow I still prefer them to the Smiths’ Perth stuff. Now Ms K, I should point out that a veteran Worst capturer would have zeroed straight in on the obvious map of Tassie in the background, but never mind, I enlarged the portion for you. By the way, is map of Tassie a vanished worst these days? Has anyone seen one lately.
