Re: Freo and Crime in Perth

There are some cheap shops in Freo, but also some places selling really nice stuff (at not very cheap prices). It depends what you are looking for, and what you want to pay. The harbour area is nice,...

Re: Perth ???

Hi MerleOberon
Perth will be what you make it, not what others tell you about it. We don't fish, own a boat or a 4WD, but we don't feel out of place. Nor do we have school-age kids. Perth is no...

I really hope you find Pink Ted. Maybe he's decided to stay in Oz and not return to the UK??
