I moved into my unit last year and only had3 days to move in and find blinds. They are just around the corner so I took in the measurements and had to leave hem to it. 3 days later I got a call to ask me (?!) when they could get in to install them. They weren't the cheapest but gosh they took a load off my mind

I had a chicken and avocado burrito there last weekend. It was delicious, if not a little small because so much of the end was folded over. They seem to have mexican covered, that's for sure

Approximate cost: $8.50

This review is for Holberts Oyster Farm, Salamander Bay NSW

I'd forgotten about this oyster farm till I logged on and shirley17's review was there. When I lived down in Sydney it used to be our monthly splurge. Sitting on the beach, eating beautiful fresh oysters and taking home a kilo of prawns for dinner. Doesn't get better than that. They need to open a vineyard next door! ;-)

I'm in a wheelchair so need some pretty hardy carpet. I told them this when I was on the phone and they bought out some excellent samples. The deal done, it was laidwitin 10 days. The carpet's durable and looks great. After vacuuming you can't even see the wheel tracks

This review is for Conrad Martens Plumbing & Hot Water, Brisbane QLD

The service from Conrad Martens could not have been better. I moved into my house in the middle of last year to discover that the gas hot water wasn't working. I know nothing about gas (except it loves fire!) so called them. There was some loose pipes but luckily I hadn't managed to find the switch so all good. They repaired the pipes, checked the system thoroughly and explained how it all worked to me.

Approximate cost: $200

This review is for Peter The Possum & Bird Man, Newmarket QLD

A friend used these guys to remove a possum from her roof / ceiling space. They had a look around and called out and had found a snake as well! Luckily it was only a carpet python and reasonably dopey so that was rescued too.

Service? What service? I'm in a wheelchair so am after some pretty tough hard-wearing carpet. It took ages to even see a staff member on the floor and when I asked my daughter to ask them to help us, she was told they would be over shortly. Next visit she made, 15 minutes later, They were "on the phone". After 35 minutes with not one word to us and my poor 10 year old making 3 attempts to get help, we left.

This review is for Acme Shademakers, Capalaba QLD

Moved into my house last year assuming tha the huge mango tree would block the summer afternoon sun. No. Acme came out and took a look and advised me on what they could do. Was cheaper than I thought would be. They were prompt and very pleasant to deal with

This review is for Story Bridge Hotel, Kangaroo Point QLD

This place is cool. Went there for lunch with friends. We sat out in the sun, had fishermans basket and a beer and soaked it all in. We went mid-week so it wasn't really busy but can really imagine it buzzing at night

This review is for Dracula's Cabaret Restaurant, Broadbeach Waters QLD

Draculas is hiarious. From the time you walk in the door to have a ghoul tapping you on the shoulder right the way through to the finale. The whole building is designed to scare the life out of you but you'd have to stop laughing. The meal was lovely. It's not cheap at just under $100 each but that covers a full nights food and entertainment
