"Ladies of the line"

Whilst prostitution is illegal in Western Australia, it is tolerated by the local law enforcement officers provided there is no trouble. The prostitutes' little cots are little different from those once to be found in abundance in the old West and here, they still provide a "service" to the hard rock men hereabouts. There are many more such 'cots' off camera to the left!
