Re: Are there 'cash and carry's' in Perth?

Yes, they are called "Cash and Carry".

Balcatta & Canning Vale.

A lot cheaper on the basics than Coles/Woolies/IGA.

XJS's would have both engines (I6 and V12) for starters.

I know a lot of IT guys (am a developer myself) and there looks to be plenty of well paid work if you have the right skills.

It's either needs to have been built prior to 01/01/1989, or you've owned it for 12 months.

That's it.

Re: perth sub
