I was young and wanted to live cheap by the beach in a smaller block (beach is just over Curtin Av and railyards to the West) so there were car break-ins, coppers getting people out of the big apartments, coppers with loudspeakers, people screaming at night, drugs, weirdos. In the smaller block there were a total cast of characters as well, mostly good but certainly eccentric. Feel like a night out? Head up the Stirling Hwy to Claremont nightclub & pubs where the serial killer was in action...
It's probably all gentrified now?

They're freakin ugly as a hat full of assholes.
I'm interested to see how the wealthy react to being effected by this lockdown in 3031 Kensington/Flemington.
Put my resume in to do my bit participating in COVID19 orgies, play cards, take people on shopping trips and maybe some uber driving
