People complaining about Perth getting huge infrastructure upgrades are failing to understand that the 787 Dreamliners can fly non-stop from Perth to London, Rome & a number of other potential European capitals, all of which are too far from Adelaide to reach safely. With these upgrades, a trip ...

That "Price Conversion Chart" is ridiculous. 100 yen is $0.96, but in-store? $3.30!

Rex to begin flights to Perth 3 times per week starting next month

Great idea, great location right near the edge of the city, nice use of the old hotel.

Seriously, there's half a dozen clubs & organistaions in the parklands who have fenced-off facilities already. This one is clearly out of the way of the vast majority of users, and they still vote it down.

a real life mech suit is so much better. I'm not even joking.

Yeah, nah

People pay money for something to do in Adelaide, incredible!

I thought the story was that the artist that was commissioned to design it back in the 70's refused permission to refurbish the plaza.

I can't find the words "train" or "tram" anywhere in these articles.

Must be a mistake!

It's an improvement on the Absolutely Nothing in the same plot of land for the last generation or so.
