Shopping - esp Perth
I'm addicted to shopping - especially at Next.
Does anyone know if they have any stores in Oz - especially Perth ? Or do I need to stock up before I leave ?

Hi,
No they don't have next in australia at all! I'm addicted too, you could always order through their website and get a friend to send it to you.
They have some nice individual shops in subiaco in Perth but the clothes shopping in general is a bit disappointing especially for suits which I buy from next.
Sorry!!

Oh well - it was a bit of a long shot ! At least there's an Ikea and Body Shop so two out of three isn't bad.

After a while you will forget all about Next etc , my mum bought me m&s underwear over , but i could have lived with out them .
Swifts right there are lots of shops to choose from all depends what you want . Surf brands are big here as in the UK Adidas . nike etc are big. Daughter loves everything with Roxy and billabong on right down to underwear, phone holder and all her school stuff Think alot shop at Target , Sussan has some nice stuff but roxy stuff is very nice and good quality like swift said.

Thanks for all your replies. I guess it doesn't take long to adjust to new shops and I don't suppose I'll be needing my jumpers and thermals anyway !!

The houses are not insulated and none have central heating.

Oh no - don't say that - hubby is expecting a heat wave all year round.
If it gets so cold, why don't the houses have central heating ? Do you have fires instead ?

They're in denial about winter here. They rug up, sell ugg boots and ugly heaters.
What we really need is central heating and Next.
