    75mm of rain here over the last 2 days Brian.

    Sunny today though. Gave me a chance to dry out all the things I left out in the rain.

    😀 Simon.

    Sorry Brian, didn’t I answer that email? Maybe I was going to but forgot. Sorry about that.

    I asked around but everyone that I asked thought I’d been smoking something. I’d suggest that is a ‘no’ then.

    I’m over that way again at the end of the month so I’ll check it out. If my memory serves me tho I think the developers have bought the old houses etc in that area and building modest little mansions. 🙄

    I’ll take me camera again just in case. Did your ex like the photos?

    Sorry to hijak the thread 😳

    I think your are talking about the Myer Centre In Brissy aren’t you?

    42 street is nowhere near the Myer centre tho, it is the name of a mall tho.

    It was called ‘TOPS’ entertainment? Had a roller coaster on the 8 or 9th floor above the food area?

    That is gone now. Had a spate of deviates that threw up over the sides of the roller coaster over the food patron 8 stories below. They spat and threw rubbish too.

    Gave the centre a bad name, so they closed it and it is now a movie theatre with multi screens

    Sign shop is Oxlades?

    Oxlade family sold out about 1998? Owned by a nation sign supplier now, supply one, I think they are the mactac distributors here. Can’t stand the owner, so don’t buy from them

    it is still interesting I suppose, just more like " I wonder if I’ll come out alive" interesting than " oh look at that" sort of interesting, if you know what I mean 😕
