This group off gentlemen are still Boiling the Billy, however at a new location in Ann Street previously they were at EXPO 88.

I was at Caloundra beach yesterday and came across this Propert Folding Caravan that dated back too 1952, No bigger than a 6x4 trailer and made from plywood and fibreglass.
And still being used to this day, it was towed all the way from Victoria.

This B-Double was parked on the side of the Warrego Hwy with these beautiful Palm tree. This B-Double is capable of carrying 70metric tonnes and I would estimate these two palms would go close.

High Powered Ocean Equiptment.

2006-07-21T09:29:00.000+10:00

Took the shots of this ocean race after it had been out on engine trails.What is it with people with boats that after the load the boat,they have to have a couple off beers before they hit the" ROAD". I would think that when you are towing such an expensive piece of equiptment you would want to have a clear mind.

This plaque is under this seat which overlooks the Broadwater on the Gold Coast,Gordon Chater was an Australian comic of some note.

2006-06-04T22:27:00.000+10:00

No it is not a flying saucer, in fact it is a water tower that the local council decided to light up with it's floral emblem.This shot was taken at approximately 1.5km in distance.

2006-06-02T09:14:00.000+10:00

Came across this 1956 Ford Fairlane two door at a panel shop on the northside of Brisbane it was in for very minor paint repair. I was informed that it has been in the same family since 1956. A true Classic.
