750,000 people in the middle of nowhere, with mostly unaffordable international flights. I mean, it's an attractive place to live, but you can't ever get away from the isolation back then.

Ngawyni at Ascot? Mount Eden at Gloucester Park? The Mighty Royals at Perth or Subi Oval? Hyde Park Festival? Not much high rise in South Perth yet. Deep Water Point skiing. Bombo Valley grape juice. Getting blotto on Rotto. Beautiful Art Deco pubs- Scarborough, Castle, Swanbourne, Mosman Pk, Shenton Pk, Majestic,...oops, where'd they go? Dirty Dicks, El Cabello Blanco. That little rocketship slide in the sand pit in the corner of the original Innaloo Shopping Centre and the Putt-Putt over the road.....and "The Drives"....how many did you fit in the boot, eh?

@@theblindfoldep It was way safer with some truly iconic unique businesses in the city. You could often park for free in all but major streets. Perth was basically closed from midday Saturday until 8:30 Monday morning. If you're under about 50, you know that lovely relaxed atmosphere Perth has on Christmas Day or Good Friday? Well we used to have that every weekend and people were more relaxed because of it.

@@every1665 Perth is much safer in 2024 than it was back in the day. Google serial killers of Perth if you want some insight to what I am talking about. I guess a lot of people look at the past through a pair of rose coloured glasses, a sense of nostalgia. However, this 54 year old Perth resident believes the city's best years are ahead of us.
