If you’ll indulge me, this week marks five years of tapping away on my little keyboard as the Editor at Perth is OK!, and while I haven’t really had a chance to reflect, it is crazy to think that when I started many of the photos on our Instagram page still had a weird filter on them.
It’s also funny to think about some of the earlier of our almost-5000 articles, including “10 photos of smiling quokkas to help brighten your day” and “10 of the best Ross Lyon quotes of all time”.
At least one of those is probably worth a cheeky re-run… Until then, thanks for reading!
