Perth Western Australia
Some say it is boring, some say it's cool. Most say nothing cos they don't know the rules.
Tattoos all around me, beery singlets too. Girls carry a bit of weght and wobble on their shoes.

What is a highway without chairs?
Well, it is a sad highway. It is a highway without character. There are people out there who remove the chairs, people who don't understand or appreciate the chairs. They are 'government' people who put the chairs on a truck and drive them to a chair depot. I wonder how the chair enthusiasts will respond?

You will see the chairs, on the road to Beverley and Brookton.
If you see the chairs sitting quietly beside the road, give them a wave. They have a lonely time, waiting for
their namesake to arrive.

New friends have joined us
A few more chairs every week. Some interesting pairs such as Mork and Mindy. This could take the idea in a new direction, but it will need two chairs instead of one.

The chairs grow, the forest watches
Here we have Harry, Alf, Jack, Joe, Dee, Keith and Ian. The short names are certainly a feature. With limited space on the back of a chair, the artists could not really use longer names. Drivers also need to read the name as they are travel past at speed. Alf is an old favourite, we have seen him come and go. Audrey was also a very early name, although not on a chair. Her name was on a rough sign. Life goes on!
