Maybe after being here nearly 10 years I can see the place more for what it is and not what I dreamed it was. Don't get me wrong, I still love it here but anyway, what do you think of this great map?

Perth is a great city! Everywhere in this world has toerags. Love the map by the way.

Biased map. :P It ended at Anketell. They could have had a field day labelling all of us living south of there... (yeah, instead of just the vague arrow indicating "more bogans, retirees, and rich bastards").

Pommes...like pommes frites? First thing I thought of when I saw it.

I'm not a member of any of the groups in our arrow. Maybe I can tin foil my front window, get a mullet, and have a dead car towed into my front yard just to oblige though. I wouldn't want to mess with their data.

Maybe I should aspire to be a rich bastard (er, bitch?) instead...granted that would take longer.

Perhaps it could be twinned with Hereford, which has its very own entry on chavtowns.co.uk under the title "Hereford: Nice place, shame about the people"?

"Herefordians are extremely narrow minded and prejudiced. Hereford saps ambition. It is the only city in the uk without a bypass, hence it takes an hour to travel two miles by car at peak times."

Now, I did NOT write this! Follow link for more about this delightful town.

I must admit I dont think I would live in Hereford, it's a nice enough place though.
