The powers that be have finally "blesssed" W.A with a singular IKEA store. The Australian patrons have yet to work out that on entering said blue and yellow store you are supposed to behave like an ignorant twat, so it's actually a tolerable (if mind numbing) experience to go there should you deem it neccessary. Argos would not translate here. The Aussies wouldn't queue for crap they didnt really want in the first place.Femme Fontanellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14067738402155387235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24860222.post-11117971052801378792007-04-04T22:44:00.000+01:002007-04-04T22:44:00.000+01:00It's because you used the word "pardon".
