Perth is dangerous shock!

That's Perth, Western Australia, not Perth in Scotland, BTW.

Turns out there's been a bit of a faux pas, in that some 'outside contractor' sent round an email warning that it's dangerous to travel to Perth. That's *Perth*, WA. You know, friendly place (so I'm told my Aussie mates of mine - I haven't yet made it to Perth WA myself), bit remote, maybe, but generally nicely laid back and easy going. That's what my friends from Perth say, anyway.

Anyway, the Western Australia tourist board is absolutely hopping mad, referring to Perth (I suspect rightly) as being one of the safest cities in the world.

But the bit that really made me giggle was the report (on the BBC site here) that the City of Perth Council was 'less concerned', stating that, "The weather is a bit dodgy." Oh, that's just lovely. Rock on Perth.

You'll be glad to hear it's still the same in Burnley, if not Nottm. I think they migrated to Lloyds on the Square in Nottm cos the drinks are cheaper (in Yates' they go up after 8:00pm).
