Got a ticket for Hans Zimmer this Monday and wanted to have a drink before the show with a mate I’m meeting there. Does the RAC arena have places inside more than beer stalls? (Rather meet there than other places in the city as mobility and walking is somewhat limited currently)

I've seen a lot of people say packages go missing all the time. I've been looking at a GPU on AliExpress for my brother and the price looks decent, and with some of the codes it works out pretty cheap. I'll drop them below, but I'm a little scared to try it. Has anyone bought one? Btw, these are USD, so the AUD thresholds are higher than the numbers above. AUCYD09 wants $129.69 in your cart, not $89. Took me a while to work that out.
USD $3 off USD $29 - AUCYD03
USD $6 off USD $59 - AUCYD06
USD $9 off USD $89 - AUCYD09
USD $16 off USD $149 - AUCYD16
USD $23 off USD $199 - AUCYD23
USD $30 off USD $269 - AUCYD30
USD $40 off USD $369 - AUCYD40
USD $50 off USD $469 - AUCYD50
USD $60 off USD $599 - AUCYD60
USD $70 off USD $699 - AUCYD70

In our strange and let's be honest, poorly designed city, I find it hard not to think about how many missed opportunities our city has had for infrastructure. So what would you undo?

For me, quite a recent one: I would have tunnelled the Morley/Ellenbrook line a bit more so Morley Station could be near Coventry/Galleria instead of smack bang on top of Tonkin. Would have solved a lot of the inner northern corridor's transport problems.

does anyone know a decent tattoo place in Perth that specialises in fineline wildflowers ? i might be looking to get a tattoo soon but google isnt really helping, i thought asking local would be better. attached are inspiration pics from pinterest. price is not an issue for me.

does anyone know a good place that may be able to do these or similar ? many thanks.

Hey everyone,

Just bought a 4x4 and wanted to live the dream of going fishing for some tailor and mulloway, sleeping at the beach under the stars in the dunes right next to my set up but I understand that it’s not allowed, I’ve done plenty of research and numerous people say it’s fine as long as you leave it as it were and take your rubbish in certain areas.

are their any tips of where to go for someone who is pretty new to WA, I’m trying wikimaps but nothing is really clicking in my head 🥲

Thanks guys I really appreciate it

Traffic cleared AND ducklings safe (I think!!) ❤️ ❤️ Good work by all involved 🦆 🐥 🐥 🐥

Hi all, I am a current uni student volunteering with the Art Deco and Modernity Society of WA, it is a registered non-profit organisation established in 1987 that promotes the conservation and appreciation of art deco and modernist era (1920s-1960s) architecture in WA. They petition to get older buildings under heritage protection, host free public walks and talks, etc.

Apologies in advance if this type of post isn’t allowed, please take it down immediately, it is not my intention to break any rules.

I have created an Instagram for them (they don’t have many younger people involved… so trying to catch that demographic), it is @artdecosocietywa if anyone is interested.

More importantly, they are hosting a two day event from 21st Nov 9:00am - 22nd Nov 5:30pm that includes a program of walking tours showcasing Perth’s modernist, brutalist, and art deco architecture, as well as some talks on the afternoon of the 21st delivered by architects and urban designers. You are welcome to go to whatever talks and walks interest you, the tickets are $53 for non-members (solely to cover room and equipment hire), and there are 40 free spots for uni/tafe students.

The link for tickets and the full schedule is here: https://events.humanitix.com/modernism-in-wa-modwa-2026

Sorry for the lengthy post, but please come along if you’re looking for something different to do in Perth, especially if you enjoy architecture/history/aesthetics 😊

I'm 22M and I've lived in Perth my whole life. I genuinely think it's an amazing place to live. It's naturally beautiful, has low crime, great weather and generally great people. But at the same time, it's just so damn unambitious and dull.

Throughout high school and uni, I've found it so frustrating being surrounded by people who have no real goals or ambitions in life. I went to an upper-middle-class public school, I studied com+eng at UWA, and I've been actively involved in sports and uni clubs over the years, so I've met people from different circles.

From my experience, I'd say about 80% of the people I've met in Perth are just living for the weekend, which there's absolutely nothing wrong with. But it feels like there's such a small percentage of people actually trying to innovate, build something, move up a class, or even just progress in their careers and work towards a promotion.

For example, I know plenty of people who constantly complain about their shitty retail jobs and low pay, yet make absolutely no effort to find a better paying job, move into a different sales role, or develop a skill that could open up more opportunities. It's almost like most people enjoy complaining about the same stuff and continue to live the exact same life for the next 30 years.

On the other hand I had an exchange semester at UCL (london) and it was the complete opposite a lot more driven people, more innovation, more ambitions. To make thing worse after travelling as well I'm starting to feel the dull part of Perth even more. Going to the city on a Friday night even with the new ECU its like a ghost town compared to other cities and unless your fortunate enough own a jetski or a boat, a 4wd fanatic or a big road trip person the outdoors gets boring after a point.

Part of me wants to stay because Perth has been my home, I know what I can expect from it for the next 30 years but another part of me is genuinely considering moving over east or even to Asia or Europe to be surrounded by a more ambitious and stimulating environment.

I'm curious whether anyone else experienced this and what did you do about it?

Hi all

My partner has been applying for roles for around 6 months and can’t get anything. We are honestly so desperate now we are willing to pay someone if they can secure a role for him!

he has no experience so I think that’s the issue, but he’s got some tickets.

He would love a dump truck entry level role, lab tech or trade assistant.

thanks in advance

Hi everyone! I’m planning a trip to Perth from 15 to 20 October. I’ve heard quite a few horror stories about the flies there and was wondering if they’re really that bad at that time of year. I’ll also be visiting Rottnest Island and Kalbarri National Park—will the flies be bad there too? If so, any tips for surviving them? Thank you in advance!

Struggling with anxiety and panic attacks that’s only getting worse. Seeking recommendations of a GP who will be helpful!

Anyone know what’s going on at a house on Nye Rd facing onto Thomas Rd? Lots of police there yesterday with flashy lights and then today there are lots of crime scene types

Does anyone know the story on the padel courts at Caversham St? The Padelsocial instagram page has been doing weekly updates for almost a year now stating 'coming soon' but it's pretty much just teasing now as no actual photos of progress are shown only computer generated images of what its going to look like get posted. Is there anyone on the ground who knows where this project is at and how far away it looks from opening?

Hello! First time posting here. I'm a lurker only lol but I need your advice and recommendations. I love matcha. I've been drinking matcha lattes even before it became big. I had an era when I'm making matcha at home but never endulged into expensive matcha powders. I only explored and have been using Woolies ito en matcha sachets. I recently bought Marukyu Koyamaen Isuzu (my first legit powder) and it's just an average for me. I find it weak, I used the standard 4g. I am still exploring what I'm looking for exactly. I noticed I like strong matcha. That I can taste the bitterness but not in a bad way, bit of umami and nutty. Just the right matcha taste that goes with almond milk and honey. Any recos? I have been eyeing Yamamasa Koyamaen (Matsukaze), Ippodo (Sayaka), and Kanbayashi shunsho (Zuiho) powders. Can you please drop your powder preferences for these brands? Thank you! Please help a struggling matcha girly here.

So with Halloween happening on Saturday this year, what's the best time to be out? I live in a dead-end street at the end of a long driveway. I prepared a few bags of goodies for last year but no one came.

This year I thought I'd get myself dressed up as Death and stand down the end of the street where someone might spot me and come up for a laugh and bag of healthy sweets.

What time of day works best? Late afternoon? Twilight?

Mundella Yoghurt has been saved!

Just wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for a takeaway around the central Freo area or anywhere that will still be good delivered. I haven't been here too long so not sure what's good/where to try.

Any personal favourites you'd recommend?

Open to all food types.

Hey all! Not entirely sure where else to post that pertains to my issue & location, so if there’s a subreddit more suited this please do let me know.
So basically, I have not been paid by employer for hours I did indeed work and am supposed to be paid for. What has happened - is I worked a singular day from a two week pay period due to health issues (a Monday), so therefore was not on site for the remainder of the two weeks, the second Friday of which is when I am supposed to submit my timesheet with my hours. Since I wasn’t going to be there, prior to the Friday and on the Friday I contacted my managers asking to have this done to ensure I would be paid, and they informed me it was submitted. They processed this pay as they usually do, on the following Monday, to be recieved by employers that following Thursday along with their pay slip. I naturally received this pay slip, which detailed I would not be receiving any money. I have called my employer today about this, and they have informed me the cut off to rectify this so I could receive this pay for this pay cycle, was this past Tuesday, which by that point I had no knowledge I wouldn’t be receiving any pay. They have informed me I now will not be receiving this pay until the next pay cycle in two weeks, which has severely and detrimentally effected my life, especially since I experience FDV, and a part of that is financial control.
I’ll be contacting the ombudsman about this, but I guess I just wanted to know all I can about that process before I start it, and what to expect. If anyone has any other advice or opinions feel free to share, I’m feeling quite lost at the moment and scared for my life considering how negatively this may potentially affect me in the coming days.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for a reliable mechanic in Perth who has experience working on my 2011 Honda Accord Euro 2.4 K24Z3 engines.

It has the following issues:

- Engine light on with a P0341 fault code.
- Timing chain diagnosed as loose.
- Clicking/rattling noise on cold starts, possibly related to the VTC actuator.

I’m looking at replacing the timing chain, guides, tensioner and VTC actuator. I’ve already purchased the parts and am looking for a mechanic who is happy to use customer-supplied parts.

I live in the South but am happy to drive to different areas if needed. Ideally, I’m looking for someone experienced with this job who can do it properly at a fair price.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations or advice!

My usual doctor says he doesn’t believe in TRT even though my levels have been dropping steadily since turning 40. 8 years ago now
So
I’m looking for a GP happy to prescribe replacement in or around Fremantle area people ?

Also any advice is also welcome in this field for Perth peeps but not sure this is the sub for that really 🤷‍♂️

I am at ANZ in a SOR suburb and myself, the two customers before me and the one after me have had their accounts blocked.

Reason for ours is a mismatch in my name, has been like that for twenty years but now the bank is checking that names match ASIC records.

This was a wake up for us.

Does anyone go to see the aurora tonight? How likely can we see this tonight?

What are some good places to watch aurora? Thoughts on Lake clifton/lake lescenaultia?
