Where To Bring Gf?

Recommended Posts

As the title says my GF is planning to come down for a week from Brisbane :/ and I was just wondering where you guys would recommend going? What are the sights and places to go? Admittedly outside cruises and a few bar/club nights I don't travel around Melbourne all that much and considering that she's from Brisbane I'm thinking Lunar Park is out of the question. I have one idea which I just saw on some TV show was Mornington Peninsula that seemed alright. Oh and she's a very outgoing person and loves cars just as much as me (Admittably I don't think I'll get to drive my R33 all that week *sigh*...)

Usual stuff James...

1. GOR

2. Phillip Island

3. Goldfields - Sovereign Hill Ballarat, Bendigo

4. Yarra Valley for wineries... though not sure how much is burnt out now

5. Wilson's Prom. Camp at Tidal River. Squeaky beach.

6. Mornington Peninsula. Lots of mazes here - Ashcombe, Arthur's Seat/Unicorn Maize Maze, Enchanted Maze. Also for fishing/camping/wineries.

7. Daylesford for relaxing spas/wineries

That's not 1 point per day BTW....

Take her shopping, Melbourne has the best places to shop out of all the states, maybe an AFL game? It's all in the chemistry, not the geography

all the best =)

Go for a cruise up over the black spur and through Marysville? Maybe a little depressing, but facinating all the same. I'm told Marsyville is a beehive activity as people rebuild.

1. Anzac day match at MCG - Go the Pies!

2. Eureka Skydeck

3. Ice bar

4. Shopping at Chapel St / Chadstone / Collins St

5. Crown on a Saturday night - I've been to the Casino at GC and it is crap so she'll enjoy the experience.

6. Restaurant Tram (This is surprisingly good and very unique to Melbourne)

7. Princess Raceway on Friday night

This could easily all be done in a weekend.

That is what i would seriously do

(minus No.7)

take her to a hotel and plough the shit out of her . . .

:)

Dude... that shit costs like $140 pp for dinner on a weekend (not including beverages). I could think of far better ways to spend $300+ with my gf on the weekend.

Epping plaza

Epping RSL

Epping Football Field

Epping Leisure City

Epping Hotel

Epping Petrol Station

LOL @ Epping Petrol Station.

    • OK, buy MSD. You be the guinea pig. It's not as if 6x$95 is all that much more than $470 anyway.
    • Mega effort mate well done.  If it makes you feel better... - My new front and rear mains leaked immediately, meaning I had to redo timing again and remove gearbox to replace.  - When testing the rear main ws good I had the selector cables off the box (box in neutral, no drive shafts in) but there was enough vibration for it try and grab a gear at idle speeds and it spat the diff shims out, so box had to come out again... There's always "something". 
    • Oh that is my favourite, done it more than once
    • Can't forget them. Have spent the better part of the last 2 years in Bunbury. Any longer and I would have to get one of each.
    • Hit it hard last night, was in the shed till 2:30am. Had to get everything ready to try fit engine today as neighbour is going away tomorrow. This happenned today      Was going smoothly, till it wasn't. Had to lower the sway bar, remove engine mounts to get the engine to its spot and then refit everything. Head drain also created some clearance issues but got there in the end. Some idiot put the drain return on the sump virtually where the engine mount is. Hose fits on but is less than ideal, going to have to revisit it and fit a 90° fitting. Had some hiccups last night too with getting the flywheel and gearbox on. Firstly forgot the sandwich plate, so had to remove clutch and flywheel again. Then gearbox went on smoothly but then realised new block has an alignment dowel in the same spot as gearbox. GB off again to remove said dowel. Cnut. Anyway, it's in now. AC and PS pumps refitted, tail shaft bolted up as well. Left to do is reconnect all harnesses and plugs. Looks like a big mess ATM. Fit dump pipe, radiator, shifter, intake piping and associated bits, air box fill, afluids and hopefully fire it up. Looks like couriers please has lost my break in oil again. Useless pricks. Looks like I'll just get whatever mineral oil is on special at super shit auto. Hopefully it will actually run after all this or I'm going to burn it, lol.
