Bloody Hell! EB Games on Elizabeth St. is only a couple of blocks from my place on Lonsdale... Aargh!

If I might say though, that is the most artless piece of cover illustration I have ever seen. It looks more like an attempt at camouflage

from Wikipedia

"The name Karrinyup was originally derived from the word Careniup, a Noongar name for a nearby swamp which apparently means "the place where bush kangaroos graze". "

The translation I heard was "Place of Bullrushes"!

Yes it's true! I live in a swamp! Which isn't too bad because a near-by suburb is called Innaloo, which is almost but not as bad as living in "Upper Swan"

Cheers!

Amazing.

I was in CBD all day, and didn't go in to one EB- normally I go in just to get depressed by the shrinking PC section.

Could have had my own Golden Ticket moment

When people from there are asked where they live do they reply "Innaloo"?

The actual joke that does the rounds is "Where would you rather live? Innaloo or Up-a Swan?"

cheers!
