[Tarkyn_24]

especially when there was a chicken treat next door

Joins other institutions like DarkZone, Fun Fact’ry and Tropical Twist as staples of a great birthday party at the turn of the century.

The music request booth used to go off.

Linkin Park, Green Day… Avril Lavigne.

2 of those released albums in the last 12 months

 

[Tonga Bob]

I can only assume that’s what Rolloways used to be called

Nah that's the one in O'Connor. Close though.

 

[TY24]

Thick and fast! G’day saffas!

It's game day, mother****ers.

Go Team

Christ you’re old

 

[Tonga Bob]

Christ you’re old

Yeah Grandpa!

 

[philreich]

WA could break away from the continental crust and nobody would even know.

To be fair, WA is NOT an ugly state - it only seems that way, because it's right next to beautiful South Australia.

I’m confused - for those with a better eye than me is this the same building that then became Supa Valu/Action/Farmer Jack’s/IGA/Aldi? Because it’s the only one that resembles that that still exists AFAIK.

And yes, that rotation of names should encapsulate the entirety of my living years on this planet. Thought it may also have been a Dewsons

Was it ever a Bi-Lo?

Yes. Yes it is.

Had the car park underneath with the smooth surface so the cheap ass kids would skate under there because they played music so loud you could hear it down there.

 

[philreich]

It's cold as shit here in SA this morning.

Still better than WA though.

I've had warmer kisses from the mother in law.

 

[Tonga Bob]

I only remember is as an IGA

 

[Cap]

Thick and fast! G’day saffas!

there are heaps of South Africans in Perth aren't there

This thread has taken a turn.

A map of Australia is like a tinder profile picture

Hot chick in the middle of a fatty and an uggo

 

[GreyCrow]

I'm not fat I'm big bordered

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Yes. Yes it is.

Insane.

It definitely had its days as all of the other monikers (except for perhaps Supa Valu and Dewson’s, they could be figments of my imagination). Was an IGA for a long while though.

I still remember Kardinya shops before they rebranded to Kardinya Park and redeveloped it (the first time). A literal lifetime ago.

 

[jackster83]

Can anyone explain how TF Julia Morris got nominated for a gold Logie?

She's about as funny as diahrrea on a bus.

 

[Tonga Bob]

I remember a time before Kardinya shops.

Impossible. They’ve been there since the Dinosaurs

Watching someone that has diarrhea on a bus is pretty funny though. Just don't be that person.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

You (especially the South Australians) will be pleased to know that there’s a Yelp entry on the web with that building under the Farmer Jack’s banner.

My deep dive hasn’t yielded anything for Action but I’m so sure it was that because the Farmer Jack’s timeline was quite short between it being Action and IGA. Need a local to confirm.
