Only because you won't give anything a second chance.

We had a good turn out at HJ's but you and Colin condemned it forever because the service was shit. I said it could have just been an off night as I've never seen it that bad before.

You gave Mt Coot-tha one shot... in the rain.

And then gave in and went back instead of trying other places.

Cold Rock didn't deserve a second chance because it shut way too early, and was a fail car park and just all round a slut of a place. So I'll let that one slide :down:

The decision was unanimous at Coot-tha (which, btw, you didn't bother turning up to), and unanimous bar yourself in the thread vote, to go back to baskins. The annoying thing is the people that voted haven't been turning up.

I am happy to give HJ's another crack. Mt Cootha is not high up on my list, but meh.
So was I!

HJs was shit. Chairs sucked, service sucked, no scenery. They didn't do anything to deserve a second chance. That said I'm not going to boycott it, if that's where everyone wants to go that's where I'll be. However the overwhelming response I have been getting from everyone (except John) was that they wanted to go back to baskins.

cootha was shit parking, shit coffee and shit prices on everything.

This. Coot-tha didn't have much going for it, but it was better than HJs.

Vote Mt Cootha again.

You voted baskins last time? Not that you have turned up since then... :D:):banana:

If I may suggest a possible compromise, for people's opinions (Credit to Chris Rogers): Baskin Robbins Mt Ommaney

It's just a few minutes further up the motorway, seems like it has some decent parking, and AFAIK is not owned by the same dude. NFI if the scenery will be up to C.H. Standards though...

Farkin lol at the cricket.

I don't care where we go. I missed the last two weeks because of moving/reel big fish etc. Normal service will resume next week.

It has the shittest carpark yet seen

You voted baskins last time? Not that you have turned up since then... ;):) :)

I voted "not" baskins, so a vote for everything not Baskins.

plus my car has been off the road for three weeks.

on another note, ended up going over to Harry's last night. Hasn't really gotten any better. But there is a lot of tail strutting about.

Stones corner is the go but nooooooooo, and then if you went there it would mean i would be obliged to come, so no dont go there lol

BR was never an ideal situ. limited seating and a a heart attack carpark limited its value imo.

Next time i go to the laksa hut at toowong I'll have a snoop around there and see if theres anything suitable.

Farken uni chicks out the wazoo too. ;)

there is an icecream place at wooloongabba you could all park in my work (only restricted from 6am to 6pm) then walk across the road to the store, lots of seats too I beleive.

My bad, misread your vote

Hmm gonna need another adelaide 160 odd from Haddin

Yer. I almost thought north was not going to be totally shit then. I was wrong.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
