End of a year AND a decade!

Wow, that's been short. Almost 10 years since Y2K glitch and almost nine since 9/11/01. 2009 has went quickly too. Has been a dark year for some people like me.
So what have the greatest things about 2009 been for you?

If anyone has some photos of Dazzleland to share, please let me know! They're hard to find around cyberspace.

Re: Dazzleland

Yikes! That rollercoaster was not for vertigo sufferers...
The track 'support clamps' may be the remaining parts of the rollercoaster.
Was the station platform removed too?

Re: Dazzleland

Some people believed that an anonymous individual from Melbourne bought the rollercoaster at auction with plans to erect it at his home.
Maybe one day when I go to the Myer Centre, I'll take an explore of the former Dazzleland floors, hoping I'm not going hear someone say "Get outta here!"

Re: #PRO: Golden Grove Village revamp

Estimated completion should be in 2012, just in time for GGV's 20th anniversary... :roll:
Part of Golden Way median strip next to the former Red Rooster has been modified. Has anyone checked yet?

Re: Dazzleland

I've never been to this place... I did see its ads on TV though! It has remained closed to public with the escalators walled up. Thanks for uploading the brochure!

Re: Beer Garden

My PC's graphics card is dying and caused a black space to appear on the screen! So I could either have the PC taken to A&R to have the graphics card replaced or get a new PC with Windows 7!

Another Celebrity dead

Notable for starring in the title role in the 1980 movie "Breaker Morant", noted British actor Edward Woodward has died aged 79. I thoroughly enjoyed his acting, and wish his family well in this sad time. "Shoot straight ya bastards!" Also was the baddest good guy in "The Eq...

Re: #Google Earth- Update (43comp, 2u/c)

I hope the new imagery will come out better...
Since I go out on my push scooter a lot, I may even get captured... :o
If possible, you could try finding your car!
