So anyone from WA got any stories from Last night at the fireworks?
One of my workmates was right next to the brawl on the south Perth foreshore, which got pretty nasty. Apparently a riot started while the cops were trying to stop people having a few beers before the fireworks started. And A couple of mates got fined for street drinking, besides that it was a pretty good night (until we tried to drive home anyway).
Anyway there are calls for the drinking and fire bans to be relaxed next year, so people can go and have a proper Aussie BBQ ,beer and all, sit back and watch the fireworks without being hassled by the man.
