I my view the answer to that is YES. It's fasshism, fasshishism, fascishism, of fugk you know the word.

I agree about The Sovereign....it's crap, unless you're under 25 and a knob. Paddy Malones is a more traditional pub, and IMO better than The Old Bailey...which itself isn't too bad. Greenwood Tavern is a good Aussie pub, I like The Woodvale personally, although these last couple of years, it's been getting more like The Ok Corale......
How about if you're over 50 and a knob? Where's Paddy Malones please? Also someone somewhere mentioned strippers - please tell me where, I'm getting bored again and have just ran out of milk and cheese.

Paddy Malones is on Reid Promenade in Joondalup.

I would echo Durty Nellys in the City. Nice pub with OK food too.

Over 50's not welcome in bars and clubs. Over 50s like to go out on the town you know.

Bullshit place, Perth. Full of corporate stuffy types, very uptight. If you're thinking of moving here from UK, and you like a bit of nightlife or are are single status over 50, forget it!
Sounds like Edin-bra to me

Well I'm pushing 50 and a bit of a nob too, but Sovereign is a bit too "trendy" for my liking. Paddy's is more like a proper pub. Don't know where strippers are mate, sorry. I'm happily married and don't need to look at other naked wimmin

I like Durty Nelly's. There's a cracking Japanese food place right opposite. Cheap as, and really tasty food.

Dusk in Joondalup might suit you. Trashy nightclub with lots of young flesh on offer.
