    Established plants are quite expensive, hence why they use smaller trees and wait for them to grow.

    My daughter is '2 years old' but her 3rd birthday is next week. So @T-bone daughter could be in a similar situation. Or she likes watching YouTube clips of it operating.

    If it comes up for sale, that's not a bad idea if QIC think it will work financially.

    The top one looks to me like a helmet with the visor up. Just a coincidence I'd say. Are those bundles of timber above it?

    The Premier appeared to be quite close to others at the second BNE Runway opening on the weekend too.

    I think you've confused 'Casuals must be employed for 12 months before March 2020' to come to that conclusion. By all means, if you have a source that back it up, please provide.

    The challenge right now is getting permission to bring the people into the country, and then actually getting them on a flight. Some people have taken ten+ days to do the Europe to Australia trip as returning citizens. Do we really need American's to build Leviathan? Surely people who can work with timber construction and read plans are enough, with some skilled oversight.

    A lot of people don't realise that many "news articles" are written from media releases. Not as much actual research and report these days.

    This was me. Hated the pirate ship and Vikings ride's at Seaworld as a kid. Forced onto both of them. I was peddle boats kinda kid. In my early twenties, got into the engineering etc of roller coasters, but never wanted to ride them. Watched the POV videos etc. Mid 20's, my girlfriend (now wife) convinced me to go on Cyclone at Dreamworld during an early access day. Was very apprehensive, but went. Insisted on going straight around again!

    Recommisioning, re-certification, ride trainer refresher, then staff refresher training. All with limited resources.

    Got to be a first for around here surely?

    Doesn't look too bad, we where never going to get anything amazing. A few subtle 'middle finger style' references to WipeOut there too. Thanks for the pics @themagician

    So more a 'look at us jumping on the bandwagon (with our long term planned upgrade)' than a direct response to the current climate.

    I'd imagine that rides that have sat dormant likely require a fair bit of inspection, as well as staff refresher training. Especially post TRRR, there will be lots of boxes to tick.

    @RossL thanks for the clear up, I'd read an early article on this.

    WHO have also said that asymptomatic people don't seem to spread the virus very easily.

    But at this point, no one has recently, to my knowledge, tested positive within Queensland with no known source of transmission (ie community transmission). They've said that we need to go through several incubation cycles (multiples of two weeks) before they can consider opening up, we must be at that point in Queensland by now.

    As a thread hijack, if you haven't seen how most of "The Mandalorian" was filmed, check out the docos and webpages on "The Volume". Impressive shit, real time CGI backgrounds that adapt to the camera position.

    That's a really great idea.

    When the next section of the Metro opens, will they require that many trains for the line anyway? The moves to get those trains into service must be very inefficient as well.

    Who sometimes carry on like a bunch of teenagers. 🙄😂

    I think the whole comment about threatening to be sued was done as a joke. But it seems like it could happen, which has caused the conflict.

    Remember with JobKeeper, business are only eligible once they have a 30% decrease year on year. Once things pick up, they will loose eligibility for JobKeeper (unless they fudge their books). I saw today, they are concerned about 'zombie' companies, ones that are dead but exist only to claim the subsidy. I suspect that some are keeping the old company alive on JobKeeper whilst starting another business doing the exact same thing and turning a profit (or at least that is the government's concern).

    They take your word for it, like they have been in public. A mate was stopped in town, asking what he was doing. Answered grabbed a coffee, heading back to the office. Off he went to the office. Should have been a bit clearer on the register, I meant at the gate, not at the rides. The risk is really low, and should be lower again by July. I will be interested to see how they handle it, as we'll need to apply some procedures for a similar situation.

    You don't have to socially distance yourself from your own family members. So you can get more than one person per car. Restaurants are having to take a guest list, so I'd expect that to be part of the process, so if someone is sick, they can identify everyone that was there that day.
