Centenary of Fremantle's establishment as Fremantle. Potential ideas for consideration, 1 > “Local government could demonstrate good will and good leadership by returning sacred area to their traditional owners who could revitalise sites like Cantonment Hill.” Joe Collard, co-designer of Uluru Statement from the Heart. 2 > Fremantle Society president John Dowson said the bicentenary “should be a celebration of bringing people together and not pushing people apart”. Mr Dowson suggested the government create a longer-term major project for the entire community to appreciate. “Something positive for the state” such as revitalising waterways in Western Australia to provide “clean water and healthy rivers for us to go back and fish in and swim in”.

Bit of a run-down of that Wheat Congress that happened the other week. I'm surprised there wasn't a mention of the unique consequences on wheat production and supply due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

This is a friendly heads up that Perths best festival is coming up in just over a month! ### Astrofest!! - 5:30pm - 9:30pm - Saturday 9th October The festival usually has an astrophotography comp, star or moon gazing (possibly cloud gazing if we're unlucky), talks, food vans and more.
That is actually a really cool industry event to have here in Perth. Did anybody get their wheat on?
 Thats too close to Freo for me! Looks like i'll be going to Scabs from now on!

Makes sense, Freo definitely fits the mold for a Teal type candidate. Labor must have known seats they hold would be coming up for this challange soon as well. If only the major parties had pushed themselves to maintain higher levels of membership, they might not be facing such an active and well resourced independents movement.
I think the King needs at least two extra days of celebration for his birthday..
I wonder if its like hairdressers apprenticeships, where you can get a cut for free/cheaper, but in this case a cheaper car service?

The building materials for the facade of London Court came from the dismantled mine head out in Kookynie?!
A rally will be held in Margaret River at the weekend to call on the state government to fund rapid bushfire suppression equipment and scale back “failing” prescribed burns in the South West. Globally there has been a shift towards adopting new early detection and rapid suppression equipment to quickly identify and extinguish bushfires. The technology, including smoke detection cameras, satellite monitoring, AI software and drones to give a bird’s-eye view to spot developing fires, is already operational in Canada and California. It is being rolled out in European countries and along the east coast of Australia. WA Forest Alliance senior campaigner Jason Fowler said the WA government and Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions were lagging and reliant on “outdated and dangerous” policy. “The prescribed burning program is no longer effective at protecting South West communities in a drying and warming climate,” he said. “Only half of prescribed burns close to communities have been completed last year because they are too risky. “Forests are also suffering with an increasing number of high-intensity burns causing severe damage.”
The impact on the inhabitants of these forests is conspicuous in its absence from this article, but i guess they have some allies in the trail users.
Just stalking the 'about' side bar over on c/melbourne, as any Western Australian on a Saturday night is of course doing... we have lives over here!.. I think... , and noticed they adopted a Numbat at Perth Zoo! How freakin cool! Cheers guys! But, why in Perth and not Melbourne?
Okay, if theres a 15 year old on the teacup ride then i don't think i'll feel safe. I need to see that 'pack a day' guy behind the controls or i just won't feel reassured. /j
Interesting, i just assumed Albany being such a large regional centre already had extended trading hours.

Its the liquor license holder who can apply for the transfer. If they're moving, even if they're Liquorland, they should be allowed to take it. And who knows, if the property goes up for sale maybe another liquor store will be put in the same location? Thats probably naive of me, this is Coles we're talking about. There'd be somewhere else in the neighbourhood someone could open another and perhaps better liquor store. Maybe Dan Murphy's will come and plonk one of their big green boxes somewhere really high traffic and cause the spot to be even more horrendous. Thats always fun!
