It would be good if they build something out off the jetty, like they used to have.

The race actually makes a profit too, unlike the f1 for Melbourne (or when it used to be in Adelaide for that matter). That is part of why it is so successful.

The 2007 event could be bigger then the melbourne GP - wouldn't that be FANTASTIC !!! Good reason why Formula One should be back in Adelaide. Cheers If not f1 A1 at least... eastern creek is crap in comparisson to the Adelaide track. Plus it would be nice if they raced on the proper F1 track, not t...

An application has been lodged with the council for the demolition and subsequent construction of a mixed use building at 264-266 Flinders Street. The proposed building will be 7 levels, incorporating parking at ground level, offices between levels 2-5, and 3 apartments for the above 2 levels. The ...

The sunsets at 2pm in the afternoon. We dont want that here....... There'd have to be some bloody tall buildings on the Yorke Peninsula for that to happen in Glenelg. haha yeah that is a good point, no overshadowing issues for Adelaide beaches in the afternoon (and who goes to the beach early morni...

The northern stand only cost 12.5 million !! The fact that a whole stand cost 12.5 mill is an indication of how cheap the stadium is... if you want a proper stadium you have to put down the money, and with interest rates as low as they are, especially for a AAA rating government, there should be no...

In regard to what's happening in Perth, they're still debating whether they should build a new stadium or upgrade subiaco. Here in adelaide we are in a much better situation than what they are. Unlike Subiaco, AAMI stadium has been designed so that further expansion can be accommodated easily. Alth...

The developments have been good... but it could have been a lot better...

Holdfast shores, the Marina etc will all date very quickly, it is unfortunate that a higher standard of construction/design, better utilising the beach front wasn't employed.

Its good to see that some people are still doing the driving holidays.. I haven't done a proper driving holiday in SA for years, in an age where you have endless Jetstar/Virgin sales, flying interstate has seemed more appealing to my friends/gf and I (and cheaper a lot of the time)... its hard to sa...

The South East of SA is nice but far too cold, same goes for the Great Ocean Road... But if the weather doesn't bother you then Robe and Beachport are really nice, on the Great Ocean Road Pt Fairy isn't too bad, and if you want to go further Apollo bay, Lorne etc are ok (again bloody freezing this t...
