Rudi was recommended to us from our local real estate agent. He is very good value compared to other quotes we got for our bricklaying needs for our renovations. He may take a little longer than other bricklayers because he works by himself but this is how he keeps costs down. He's easy to communicate with and talks things through. We are happy with the work he has done for us.

The best thing about Kaye Kendall and her staff is the service. The ladies at the desk are so lovely and always remember to follow up after appointments and remind you of upcoming appointments. Although periodontists can be expensive, at least you are getting value for money with Kaye.

Central Dentist allows you to use benefits from most (if not every) private health fund which is very handy. The dentists are good but the follow up service could be better - they never remind you when you are due for an appointment.

We celebrated a family birthday there recently. The waiting time was a little long but the food was delicious and the service great. The atmosphere was nice and although the restaurant was so busy it wasn't too noisy.

This doctors surgery bulk bills and I have never had any trouble getting an appointment. I have seen two (or the four) different doctors there both who are nice to deal with and happy to answer any questions. They are now our local family doctor.

Matters in Gray is a hairdressing training studio. I get my hair trimmed there for $12. Bargain! The students cut your hair while being supervised by a qualified hair dresser. I have never had any bad hair cuts there and I love the bargain price. They also do hair colouring.

After our car broke down recently (and only having one car) we wondered how much a mobile mechanic would be and whether we'd be able to get one just before Christmas. After a few calls Felix were happy to come and look and our car and then come back and fix it. The service was great and well priced. They took the inconvenience out of the situation.

We used the Luv Dub's red Kombi van as our wedding car. The car was immaculate and Wes the owner / driver was well dressed and helped make our day special. The kombi went well with our beach themed wedding, looks great in our photos and the champagne in the back of the kombi went down well.

We have been to this lovely intimate French inspired restaurant twice now. It is not that well known in Brisbane yet as it is not central to other dining districts but it is well worth going there. It is not as expensive as other fine dining restaurants but the food is absolute divine, with great wines, lovely atmosphere and great service. We'll be back!

Approximate cost: $25-30

I first met ladies from here at a bridal show. They were quite young and vibrant and their look was what I was after for my wedding. I had a rehearsal with them and then they did my make up, my sisters and my mums on the day of my wedding. They fitted in with us and turned up very early for our morning wedding. We were so happy with how we looked! There were cheaper people out there. These guys seemed to charge lots of extras but in the end we were happy with the results and that is the main thing for your wedding.
