you know you are in Mandurah when.........

  • you are following a p plate driver in a brand new honda civic with a sticker saying "buy australian to save australian jobs"
  • you walk around the shopping centre and wonder why there are so many 14 year old girls here and why are they not in school, but then you realise they are busy looking after their 2 babies 
  • you pull up next to a brand new toyota prado D4D with a 1 foot high bonnet scoop off a funny car
  • a p plater in a ford diesel ute races you at the lights and has a blow off valve
  • a commodore wagon had not only neon lights under his car, but on his roof rack as well
  • 1 or 2 australian flags isn't strayan enough, I counted a 4WD yesterday with 7 aussie flags and 3 boxing kangaroo ones as well - if they had room I'm sure they would have clipped on more to the side windows
  • primer is a popular car colour, followed closely by mismatched panel colours
  • you are beyond 65 years of age and look like you have spent 49 of them sunbaking, yet you insist on wearing a fairly skimpy 2 piece bikini to the major shopping centre
  • you see an old bloke drive a gopher with neons that are pulsating
  • you see a group of 15 year old girls wolf whistling trolley boys

 

I swear I could write a book about the place.

You use a tank of fuel getting through 10 sets of traffic lights.

You score a chick at the pub, and pull her pants down to find shes wearing hesian knickers.

Vh and vn commodores everywhere with "baby onboard" stickers on back window.

Go to a wedding and the bride is wearing a white tracksuit

forgot about the baby on board stickers. I think they are a feature on used cars in Mandurah, like cruise control and air conditioning.

Last year I drove through on my way to see the out laws down south to get cut off by an 80yr old blue rinse set granny driving her honda crv. As I pulled level on the dual carriage way she wound down her window, flicked her ciggy butt at my car then flipped the bird..... what a farken place! I couldn't even get angry I was too busy laughing at the chain of events

when the council decides to stop a perfectly good left turn-off from the old bridge into Mandurah terrace ( where it all happens so to speak) Now you have to go on to the lights, before turning left 3 times. trouble is you cant get out again due to traffic coming over the bridge.
Businesses down there are suffering badly because of this total f-- up including my daughter`s which she sold at a loss.
