She's on her last legs, poor old Cottesloe history just about gone.

What are those old swimmers going to swim
around now.
Looking at that pic you would think that Cott Groyne would be almost underwater.

In the perth now photo gallery, you can
see the photos going, going, going, gone, hope they restore it Colin, in the gallery photos there are some young surfers having a good time with the waves stirred up by the storm. The oldies most probably will still swim around the concert blob, to cold for me but think the ice breakers get out there

HI Roberta Yeah, I see them every time
I go for an early morning fish at Cott Groyne. They are pretty keen as some mornings I have been there it has been absolutely freezing.

excellent I have tried what I call action shots and
(put it on the setting for action) and they come out blurred, love the third photo, I'm a real nature freak for taking photos, have heaps. Got some beatiful shots of the black cockies in our front yard eating the bottle brush. Did this photo with action shot while in the car bit blurred

the other agruement also would be joe amato we have been
put on hold for ever for getting connected to sewerage here in Spearwood after being promised for the last 15yrs, sometimes I wonder where the pollies think or do they just sit on their brains? Yes $500 thousand spent somewhere where its really needed, but isn't it also history, good arguements for both sides.

Definately an Icon
Can't imagine 'cotto' (beach) without it. Certainly hope it stays somehow.
Spent many a winter weekend surfing there when everywhere else was blown out and closing in metro wise.
Yes; great shors Marc!
Soon to be de "dreamweaver" ed!
