[COM] Re: PRO: Oaklands Rail Overpass

[COM] Re: Masters Adelaide Airport

Mile End is one of Bunnings' national flagship stores. It's far and out the best performing location in SA. It won't be moving. I agree. This store is always busy. I can't see them closing it. The Masters site at Adelaide Airport would be a successful trading site - captures the market in the weste...

Re: Fleurieu Peninsula | Developments & News

Well the good news is the D'Arenberg rubiks cube is already underway. Slab is done... Might have to go for a drive durin...

[U/C] Re: 130 Main Road McLaren Vale | Shopping Centre Upgrade

I've been told there used to be 2 supermarkets in Mclaren Vale in the past, Foodland in the current shopping centre, and Bilo down the road where the cheap shop is now, then Foodland left and Bilo took the larger store.
