It'd be alright if I still heard Dr. Hook on the radio, and everyone was wearing bellbottoms and platform shoes, or even Affros ..
Sylvia's Mother??? OMG, I used to LOVE that song .... and the Operator says 40 cents more .... for the next.... three .... minutes.... pleeeeeaasseee Mrs Adrian!!! I just gotta talk to her, I'll only keep her awhile ........... .
The 70's were awesome for music, but everything else, like fashion and decor .... not exactly the Nadir of good taste .... [/quote]

If Perth's shopping hours are "so old fashioned",
can you find grocery stores that will make deliveries to your house?
That could offset grocery stores usually being closed after work.
I hear that's what Toronto was like in the 1950's and 1960's when we had less convenient shopping hours.

Ha, I doubt it, sounds like quite a foreign concept, although I think Coles has online shopping and delivery.
I just want to know what traffic is like in the other cities that have Sunday trading?
Is Sunday traffic in the other cities just like every other day?
I mean I hate how Perth shops aren't open on Sunday. But having said that
I really do all my driving around on Sunday in Perth because there is NO traffic
Go to the hills, the beach, visits friends on the other side of the city is always easy
on Sunday because the city is dead. I just want to know if trading laws change, will
the freeways be the same on sunday just like any other day? Will traffic increase dramatically
I have been to the other capitals on sunday I'm just trying to remember what the traffic was like

Timac I think Perth's number 1 radio station still plays Dr hook
I remember reading a couple of years back that Perth's 94.5 was the only station in the country
that had as much as 50 % of the total audience. Such dominance never happens anywhere in the country!
The thing is 94.5 only plays 70's and 80's music!
So maybe we are stuck in 1975..oh hang on got to go, theres a new TV series
just came on and it looks good. The A-Team...has anyone seen it!

Maybe there is an advantage being 20 years behind
What are you talking about Saturday and Sunday are the busiest for shopping in the city.

I listen to Mix 94.5 sometimes, it doesn't only play 70's and 80's, it plays 70's to current, with some 60's (e.g. Beatles).
