Title: Ascot Vale Alert
Post by: Moi on March 03, 2007, 04:16:38 PM
Anyone living in Ascot Vale, there's a man walking around with a gun.
Cops have blocked off Maribyrnong Road and Union Road - think he's in Union Road.

In other words, stay indoors

Highpoint was the centre of the universe when I was kid lol. Caught the tram there from Footscray. It was about a fraction of the size it is now too and it had a drive-in opposite. People living in Ascot Vale thought they were the posh suburb of the West  :wallywink.
