We could really do with a roof over an IMAX cinema.

We have one of those already. We just don't have an IMAX franchise in it.

We need a roof over the vinyards, so you can enjoy them in the shade and without getting wet.

yes - good idea, and i'd like artifical sunlight and rain under the roof as i prefer being outside.
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Also it'd be nicer without the vines because someone people get allergies, and replace the disgusting, dirty, infectious soil with something more hygienic, like maybe some nice imported pavers.

Are you sure? I was under the impression that the one we had was converted to a normal cinema without a huge screen.

Nope, it's still billed as "eximax: Adelaide's biggest screen". It's just the IMAX projection equipment that was removed.

I get the sneaky suspision that some of these suggestions aren't serious.

So how high is the screen? IIRC IMAX screens are nearly as high as they are wide.

It's still the same screen. They're just not projecting on to the entire surface.

And whoever came up with the Eximax name, deserves much kudos.

When it clicked in my mind when I first saw it, I thought it very clever and cheeky.

I had one of those moments when I realised that Optus was in fact opt us (over Telstra).

Id like a roof over my bicycle when it rains. Like a convertible bike. If not, then a roof over all the bike lanes
