...and if you do go to Margaret river, go eat some chocolates, cakes, and ice cream at the Margaret river chocolate factory. If you go to Carvesham wildlife park, you can pet some kangaroos. :)

I am too old for clubs
How can anybody be to old for a club and still be able to see what's on his screen? Or do you reader that tells you what is answered to your thread? By the way, three month ago in one of the clubs I go, somebody celebrated is 78s birthday. But if you are much older, I can understand. :) So my motto is: If you are not dead go to a club, if you are dead play golf with the other zombies. :-\

Would rather sit at the quiet place with a beer or two
Then wander down to Fremantle docks, pick a nice bar for people watching, there are plenty there. If you get the opportunity and like wine then take a drive/trip to Margaret River, some of Oz's best wines, bloody expensive but lovely wines.

Many have recommended Fremantle at office already. Now, I need to go there. I am not a sophisticated high society type wine and cheese tasting guy, so no wine. I like beer.

A WHAT! Bloody hell you don't need to be the first 2 to enjoy the wine and cheese, I enjoy wine and cheese with some real lowlifes and I assume they are the better company, never having been accused of being sophisticated. While they do have a couple of boutique breweries down there the 4 hour drive is not worth it, Freo on the other hand is just down the road.

I don't know. I feel old when I see people in early 20s at the club. I just have 10 months and I will quit 20s. I swear.
Uh. Yes. I'm in the early 20s. Na, in real life I'm end 20s. Okay. That's a lie. I'm in the 40s. But I'm number one on the dancefloor. :-\

Unless you're a rich winesnob, the only difference you'll notice between a $15 bottle of wine and a $150 bottle is how quickly your wallet empties; which is a good reason for the rest of us to avoid places that only sell the expensive stuff.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

Well I'm neither rich nor I hope a wine snob but I can tell the difference between a $30 bottle (SGD) and a $100, now the difference between a $150 and a $300 bottle is, to me, undetectable, the 1 or 2 times I have been exposed to such wines. To me, the difference between a $15 bottle and a $50 bottle is huge. I remember getting some $6 cleanskins in the Hunter Valley many years ago that were just excellent. Price is not the defining point when it come to wine.

That's where I am till 15-Nov-2014. Any kind Aussie CPian here?
If you are only in Perth until the 15th cause you're then coming to Sydney you're in luck. That's the day I have my party and will be cracking my keg of beer in the backyard with a barbie. If you're heading back to India you miss out.

Is there anything else to do in Aussie wildlife parks except to pet kangaroos, wombats, wallabies, koalas, cane toads, venomous snakes and spiders, rabbits, etc? :laugh:
