People on the Gold Coast
Sun, 28 May 2006 10:44:43 GMT I found this on another blog and I find some truth in it. The Gold Coast is a really eclectic and transient sort of place. Some people can be pretentious and it is hard to find truly genuine people which is a shame because it is a really beautiful place to live. Although the genuine people you do find truly make it worth living here. Quote .....first of all you have the three different types of class's of people...the first class being "first class" or how i would like to refer to them as is "pretentous bunch of fucks" but hey thats just me and each to their own.....this breed of species tends to work on a visual level...it's not that you have a b/f it's what he looks like! it's not that you have a car it's what type of car you have....it's not that you eat, party and live your life. it's where you are seen doing it! because these people work on a visual level everything seems to be peachy on the outside, because lets face it if you have money you can cover up anything just look at oprah.....sadly i refuse to believe these people are living happy lives but while they keep smiling they will be the envy of group three......group three being the lesser advantaged, or as i like to call them "bogans" bogans spend there days wishing they had money so they could date people from group one....they have a chip on their shoulder because they have worked just as hard if not harder....and for what? they generally have nothing to show for it.......ok so last of all but certainly not least is group two...or as like like to call them "genuine people" this is where i fit...these people are hard to find on the gold coast...but they do exist!!! you wont find them trying to be like class A or putting down class C their inability of fitting in with any other group...groups them together well.....they dont hang out in large clusters as you would find group C at centerlink or group A at the quest they tend to stay inside ........but this is whats wrong with the gold coast......we need group B to get out more and show the world here what people can be!!!!!!!! ...... |

Gold Coast Council time to wave goodbye
Tue, 23 May 2006 10:56:38 GMT If you live on the Gold Coast you will know how upstanding our council is and for those that dont they have had a cmc inquiry into their actions and didnt recieve a real good wrap. And now they want to spend 10000 ratepayers dollars on advertising how good they are!! They really are clowns! I went to the blues on broadbeach festival on the weekend and it was pretty cool execpt for the council worker in his ute who obviously had some vendetta against people walking on his road! When we were walking to get in our car he tried to mow us down with the bull bar on his ute and then hailed out some abuse! Apparently we were not the only victims on his rampage. That must be the councils new way of managing crowds at public events. Time to say seeya to the clowns at the helm, bring on Borbridge! |

Indy Time on the Coast
Mon, 08 May 2006 15:22:20 GMT It seems like it wasnt that long ago but the Gold Coast Indy is not to far away! In a only a little over five months time the big event fires up and if it's anything like last year, what a time it's going to be. Last year was just 4 days of parties, spectacle's and flat out racing. It was huge. Over the four days the off track entertainment is just endless with 50 something events being held in various locations over the four days. Apart from all the partying in Surfers Paradise itself Broadbeach is fast becoming one of the places to be with some of the big nightime events held at the Casino and at the Gold Coast Convention Center. Broadbeach also has a huge range of clubs, bars and excellent restuarants. The other popular spot is Main Beach with it actually being right on the track, Mano's at Main Beach is a popular hang out after the event. Accommodation for the Gold Coast Indy can be hard to get for the right price and right spot so seal a deal early. Anywhere from Broadbeach to Marina Mirage is handy enough in location. The official site has info on dates and times for this years Indy. |

Getting around the gold coast
Fri, 05 May 2006 04:08:37 GMT The Gold Coast is one very popular tourist destination and I see many people that come here seem to oversee there transport needs. The Gold Coast used to be a very laid back location where you could get around really easily. Now im not saying that you shouldnt holiday here, definateley not, becuase this is still one of Australias favorite and MUST come to destinations. It's just that it's also Australia's 6th largest city and becoming one of the worlds favorite destinations.A little planning is the key to transport on the Gold Coast and know your options. Here is a summary of different transport options:Gold Coast airport transfers :Gold Coast Airport transfersThis company can provide airport transfers to and from the airport at coolangatta via luxury sedan, stretch limousines and coaches. Cost wise it is very effective when compared to other modes of transport considering they wait for you at the airport, and only you, and take you direct to your destination.Surfside BuslinesThis company provides shuttle services around the Gold Coast and the airport. Vehicles are large coaches that leave from the southern end of the airport and travel along the Gold Coast Highway dropping everyone at their registered accommodation houses (they dont drop at private addresses). Cost effective although mundane and boring. The transit pass may be worth a look for families.Regent TaxisTaxis ranks are located at either the Qantas or Virgin arrivals. Taxis are not usually able to be pre booked so there is a certain amount of uncertainity as to wheather there will be a taxi available and a taxi of the right seating capacity. This would be due to large events, peak periods or high demand on taxis although if you do choose to use a taxi you will find the drivers on the coast well natured and freindly. Similar price to limousines, better off pre booking one of those.Once youv'e arrived at your accommodation and need to get around there is a reliable public bus network, check at your accommodation for schedules, taxis (phone at least an hour in advance) and limousines (must be pre booked - at least an hours notice). |

Gold Coast Schoolies dates
Wed, 26 Apr 2006 13:48:00 GMT Just checkin out on the web the dates for schoolies, heres what i came up withWEEK 1: 18 November - 25 November QLD Schoolies WEEK 2: 25 November - 3 December NSW Schoolies WEEK 3: 2 December - 10 December VIC SchooliesSchoolies on the Gold Coast is one huge party and the place is packed, whatever your booking book early- gold coast schoolies accommodation books out early. Also dont forget to plan your transport as well, book your airport transfers in advance as well. Limousines are pretty good value on the coast.My tip's from expericence how to stay out of trouble.Keep you ID on you (ALL TIMES)Keep your front door locked and shut at all times.Noise WILL attract the wrong type of attention.Find out if there are permanent residents on your floor. (if so keep quiet)The quieter you are the more you can get away with. (No noise = no security or thugs in face)Drink in the lift, halls, pool or foyer and your precious booze get's taken.DO NOT DRINK ANY WHERE IN PUBLIC (Beach, mall, streets)Surfers is covered in CCTV camera's so is the Esplanade. (Fines are real)The following is the fastest way to get in the krap - whistling, yelling out to the pool or holding yelling out to another floor or building, throwing anything of the balcony and urinating anywhere but the toilet.Gold Coast schoolies is a heap of fun - just stay out of trouble! |
