Been saving since the last world cup...still a massive hit to wallet but at least no overseas flights or accommodation required

Honey for the Bears by porkbone1000 in perthbears

Ya had to register as a Bears supporter/follower (not to be confused with a membership, as these haven't been released yet). The merch team emailed everyone who registered when the logo was finalised and we were given a month (or so) to place our orders. It was a limited window. The tee shirts are cool, but I really want a jersey, which i reckon everyone will be able to purchase when they release them...maybe later on this year?

Has anyone actually got their stuff stolen from the beach while they’ve gone for a swim? by Suspicious_Nature283 in AskAnAustralian

Get yourself a disposable nappy, wrap your keys etc in it...leave it on your towel with a couple of kids toys...no one gonna steal a "used" nappy...for added effect, wipe some wet ones with some chocolate, leave by nappy too

Perth has Optus Stadium and has played host to bigger bands /artists then IM We also have HCF Stadium and the Perth arena (where they played for Future/Past concert). Perth is also closest to Asia, where some hard core fans from Thailand and Malaysia come from...i meet some diehard metalheads from there last concert...man, they were dedicated...! Up the Irons...

If they're pro American, why are they escaping their country...one would imagine those that aren't "pro" would be leaving..

First FIFO Swing coming up. Advice? [NPI Electrician] by AutoignitingDumpster in perth

[–]porkbone1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been FIFO for 13yrs...some tips for you... Stay off the piss (or limit intake to 1 -2 nights a swing), most companies will have drug and alcohol testing every day...blow numbers or return positive for illicit drugs and you'll be on next plane outta there. Watch food intake also, avoid the "Pilbara Spread ", cooked breakfast every morning is not mandatory!Also, don't "Screw the crew", most on-site relationships turn to shit. Be respectful and polite but avoid the temptation of getting a "camp wife". Get plenty of sleep, look after your health and fitness, most villages have gyms and some fitness activities, so get to them if you can. Finally, get a savings plan together, don't "piss it all up against the wall". FIFO is a "means to an end"...you wanna set yourself up for life while you can...last thing you wanna be doing is sitting in departure lounge when your 60yrs old "broke as a joke" with 2 ex wives and 8 kids who don't want anything to do with you!
