Rebooming

Is the boom back?  Must be if the taps in the new Halford Bar in the State Buildings are to be judged. Himmler had something similar 8 years ago.

Outrage Sunday 240 Alpha

The new crossfit? Yoga? No, Alpha is religion. The questions rack up: where are you going? Is there more to life than this? Why does religion think appearing like sports gear will get the punters in? No pressure, no follow up, no charge! One fondly recalls the mid-1980s in teh Pert, where you couldn’t walk from the bus to the Terrace Hotel without being accosted by some born-again who really wanted to tell you how s/he had been whacked out on teh drugs, and had loads of unmarried sex, but was saved by teh Lord. The men always looked a bit wistful when they talked about their rooting. The Orange People were more fun. Alpha even has a hash tag! “Alpha really is for anyone who’s curious”. They even have a quote from the religion-hating The Guardian: “What Alpha offers, and what is attracting thousands of people, is permission, rare in secular culture, to discuss the big questions: life and death and their meaning.” Civilisation not keeping up with modernisation?

Twiggy’s Turd

In the tradition of billionaires creating iron turds in their honour, Bento shows off Andrew Forrest’s version in the bleak, depressing environs of the awful and shitty ex Merlin Hotel, now Hyatt precinct. It has it all, bricks, glass urinal bricks, Andrew Forrest.  The plaque says its nickname is the Mighty Greg, but I assume staff call it “Grunty the Eye Waterer”.

Dowerin

Our blogging overlord choked on his absinthe this morning when he read this pedestrian headline on teh WAToady. “Embezzlement at Dowerin and they don’t go with Executive has Dowerin Field Day?” Speaking of betting sprees, what do people make of the BBC’s lavish treatment of War & Peace? I did enjoy watching the psychopathic Dolokhov bilking 42,000 roubles out of young Rostov at cards. But the boozies have been controversial for some. dowerin

Show us your bins

Leave your bins out? Apparently Bayswater has been protesting every week for the last decade. Come on Alfred Cove! Let’s get this 4 storey development built! Let’s put our bins out and make sure DAPS won’t force us to have single story homes for old buffers when we can have 4 storeys. I for one will never bring my bin in. By Reign of Error.
