Spotted on the Move

Hey guys, I know Rocky Show is on this weekend, so I was really surprised to see a few rides on the road just outside Brisbane heading north. Watkins Kamikaze, March's Wave swinger (98% sure) and a Cha Cha (not sure who's, looked like one from castle hill show pics) and a few joints too. I wonder wh...

Re: Wittingslow's Rides Squash at Lygon Street on Argyle Squ

It's ashame. I wonder what the industry would look like today if they were forced to sell off everything. Now we have so many operators with some top quality gear that have the opportunity to get on at our capital shows which were once pretty much Wittingslow dominated. But I guess they would have b...

Re: Gympie Show

Thanks for sharing. There seemed to be no double ups. Is that March's Whizzer in the pic? It's really changed since I last seen it. Love regiomal shows there is always so many food joints!

Re: Paniyri - 2012

I don't know if they have ruined it, they might have shot themselves in the foot. A lot of Ipswich locals come to ekka so the show is always small and doesn't really have much of a side show alley. But yeah paniyiri wasn't as good as it has been..
