Driving past this morning, it appeared that the shipping container was gone and there was some more fencing ready to be put up when more parts arrive

I think old skeet's a bit upset he wasn't the one to snap photo's of the supports first and the get the 23 likes. You can't be having a go at someone for taking a photo at a very very empty car park...

Approved In summing up. It's the vibe.

You're an asshole! </s> Well it won't be rides that drive visitation.... so.. i mean maybe a new garbage can will drive visitation? Village Roadshow think rides won't drive visitation... that explains a lot.

@Tim Dasco ooopsie doopsie, I haven't seen a close up of the seats before. But yay for no petty bullshit as these were apparently taken BEFORE the restrictions.

What are you guys talking about? @Original replies will come once Original has finished saving up for a keyboard. For now be happy with his morse code.

Oh ok I didn’t know that I thought it was owned by them. So after looking at the the supports in @Jdude95 photos and the concept art I think that these pieces start to make up the spike.

I must admit, I lol'd. thats a good one. So, had a couple hours to think about it all, and then read Skeet's latest, and here's where i'm at. I don't consider lego to be essential. But - as we've all seen from Hogwart's Castle, its a great way to keep occupied and while away the boredom at home. So, the lego store gets to stay open through the 'ScoMo Puzzle LoopHole'. So 'essential' isn't necessarily the definition many of us would give it, because we wouldn't regard some things as essential, and we probably need to look at a 'looser' definition (especially since anyone with employment is currently considered to be 'essential' that definition is getting pretty loose). I stand by my earlier opinion, that a few facebook theme park news sites (ooooh.... online journalists!) taking a minor detour to take a few pictures in an empty carpark doesn't cause any harm, and in fact reduces the risk of others descending onto the park en-masse, because it satiates the thirst we have for content in this theme park vacuum. Theme Park YouTube channels around the world are literally uploading videos recorded outside the park gates of many large parks around the world that don't have the first appearance of a new coaster parked up in the carpark. If these couple of guys' photos stop every other guy from going down, i'm all for it, and I reckon if they were polite, quick, discreet, and not causing a nuisance, I think QPS would probably buy the online journo bit and wave them on. As you say though mate, opinions are like arseholes. And I do hope Mrs Skeet stays safe through all of this.

I think in time ol' Skeet is going to feel a little lonely out on that limb...

I know right- its the exact thing that social distancing is trying to promote!! If the carpark was full, then his posts would have some validity......but as it stands its nothing more than a rant.

Wow. That escalated rather quickly!!!

Geez Skeet. Calm down buddy. Who’s to say the photos were even taken outside of the car? I thank our overlord JDude for getting these pics as he was passing by. I was going to drop in on the way home from essential work to take a look, but now I don’t have to.

You live in Brisbane?

You obvious don't understand why the restrictions are in place and what they are trying to achieve if you are asking that question.

The fence crew didn't break any rules unlike you.

Yeah, how are they doing? Has anyone checked in with the fence crew to see if they have contracted Covid?

Still rationalising to suit oneself.

Fuck you @AlexB If my wife gets it, she's as good as dead. If people stopped rationalising why it's ok for them to breach the rules the sooner, we can get through this.

Yeah, i think you're a little off the mark mate. I bet you anything you like that support connects to the track though...

They contracted it from an asshole from Brisbane.
