Mini Wonderland

[joz]

There's no reason to limit the number of attractions in the park because of its size, just look at Blackpool which is crammed up good and proper. As for the 47 attractions, well, if the park gets popular and needs the extra capacity, then why not?

Just an update. Reliable sources in Blacktown Council have indicated that there are at least two potential investors lining up with "recreational use" plans for parts of the Wonderland site. At least one includes keeping some of the rides from the old Wonderland. Early days yes, but things are certainly happening. Keep the ideas rolling along guys. It looks like Council's position may be coming over to our side, and thats a start. ZordMaker

I can tell you that the 'Mini Wonderland' plan has failed. What’s your next charity case going to be now Zordy? "The Bus is now leaving for Mini Mini Saddle, NSW"

Wonderbus why do you always have to be so negative? Are you suffering from Stress? Cheers Sean If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative. Woody Allen

I'm not being negative, just realistic. The fact of the matter is that Bush Beast will be pulled down in the next month or so. There will be no stay of execution. I don't believe in stress, so therefore I can't suffer from it. Stress is a figment of the mind, if you can't handle what you do then you shouldn't be doing it so take a step back and re-evaluate your situation.

"I don't believe in stress, so therefore I can't suffer from it. Stress is a figment of the mind, if you can't handle what you do then you shouldn't be doing it so take a step back and re-evaluate your situation." Is that from Bueaty and the Beast Bussy?

Is that the Linda Hamilton version or the cartoon? "The Bus is now leaving for Cartoonganie Waterhole, South Australia"

Back to the ole Rattlers I guess. But the following recent quotation from NSW Heritage office may interest you; Thanks for this information again. I have spoken to Blacktown Council and been informed that it is on their list of items that deserve investigation into their heritage significance. Furthermore any proposal for demolition would be referred to the Heritage Office, since we have expressed an interest in the item. So it seems unlikely that demolition should be authorised by Council in the next few weeks. I should point out that it is the opinion of the Heritage Office that on the available evidence presented for the IHO it does not appear to be of State significance. So it might be appropriate to approach Blacktown Council to ask them about assessing and conserving its possible local significance. Sincerely, and thanks again for your interest, Bronwyn ZordMaker

[Bussy]

That’s fair enough but from what I have heard they already have permission to demolish. "The Bus is now leaving for Fairburn, NSW"

Is that the Linda Hamilton version or the cartoon?

The daytime TV version. What was that blokes name? Stan Zemanick or something :confused:

[Bussy]

I have no idea who you are talking about. If it's still on let me know and I will try and watch it. I still like the cartoon version though. "The Bus is now leaving for Stanaforth, NSW"

It was a great old Australian panel show. People used to write in with all their problems like "My Husband is cheating on me and keeps setting me on fire. Should I leave?" To which the panel (made up of 5 women and 1 guy) would answer. The women would aways say something like "Oh yes darling. When my last husband started trying to BBQ my right leg then I left him straight away". The guy would say something more along lines of "Well, from the sounds of things, your a very insecure nambie pambie person whose bloody lucky to have a husband. Why don't you try be a better wife?" If you haven't seen it then you missing out on great TV. I don't think its on anymore though.
