Possibly, but I read the paper this morning and he said the party was over.

Sadly I was never invited to the party and if I had known such a party had existed I would have asked for the foreshore back.

I fear this chance is now lost :(

Great stuff. May not be your thing but there is a great little page group on Facebook right now, one week old in fact, called Lost Perth. It has lots of great, odd and nostalgic pics from back in ze day. :-) Den
