I found this company to provide really good value as they were the cheapest for my move interstate, They estimated a 2 weeks delivery time and messaged me the day before to advise of the time they would arrive on the day when delivering my items, this being accurate. However for the uplift, they did not contact me as scheduled, arriving unannounced. During the booking process I found that the staff was also annoyed as I required clarification on some aspects and I received mixed answers such that I was unsure of the correct procedures. However it all went well ultimately and I did not have any issues in the pickup and uplift, my items arriving in perfect condition at the time and day stated with no damage.

This was a very nice playcentre, with a large cafe' area. It was very popular with little parking on site however with more availability at the back of the building. Prices were good and the site sells 10x passes. The children are having a great time, there is lots to do and also an hourly pirate ship ride. There is honestly just one of the staff who is respectful as the other staff was really rude at several occasions and unable to provide good quality customer service. I was told that I could use a locker for my laptop each time I brought my daughter to the bathroom as we had left food on the table and it was gone upon a bathroom visit. I honestly found this quite peculiar and highly unusual also given there is a charge to use the lockers. Most people would not leave personal items unattended rather taking with them than paying for a locker use being 5 minutes.

This church is very friendly with very good services. The pastor, Matt, is very funny and charismatic, whilst remaining very committed to Jesus in his preaching. It comes across as a fun church and it is quite popular in the area. Many of the church goers are friendly and welcome new people. There is a specific area to drop off children safely and then pick up when the service is finished. It is a great place to be. Parking is also available on site, with lots of spaces.

This church is somewhat different from the city campus, it retaining more traditionality. Nonetheless, it is an active, popular church. A specific area to safely drop off the children is available, with plenty of parking on site as well. Everyone is really friendly and it is a great place to be.

This church is really modern and fun, great for young people. The music is fun and loud, it is a very spiritual, powerful church. There is a section for parents to drop off their children safely and collect them after the service. Parking is challenging however there is a bus connecting to a designated parking area for the church goers. The cafeteria is also great, first church I have been to where I can actually bring my coffee inside :) everyone is super friendly and enthusiastic. Great place to be.

This review is for Perth Zoo, South Perth WA

verified email - 28 Jan 2018

This zoo was really nice - it had so much to offer in terms of animals to see, excellent variety. It was very big too such that we walked for a few hours in order to properly view all the animals. There was a play area for the children, which was very popular. I enjoyed seeing that there was drinking water available at multiple locations to refill our bottles on a hot day, also this is the first time I see ice cream vending machines. Parking was a bit confusing as it seemed that we had to pay for it as per the signs however when querying with the stuff, that is only applicable Monday to Friday and not on weekends. We really loved visiting Perth zoo and had a great family time. I would recommend an annual pass as visiting 3 times per year already allows for a saving with a pass.

Approximate cost: $31

This playcentre is great fun for the children and very popular. Lots of play areas including a central round, car driving facility for the children (supervised by staff of course and enclosed). My daughter often asks me to go there because of the car driving availability. Great cafe menu, they even make pizzas at an affordable price and so good! They also have a rewards program where you get 5 dollars to spend for every 100 you spend at the centre. Strongly recommend!

My garage door motor had broken down and after some calling around I found that Pete had the best price in the area. He was very friendly and polite, efficient and enthusiastic to assist. I was very satisfied with the service received and would strongly recommend this business.

This review is for Wooden Spoon Cakes, Melton VIC

I ordered a cake for my daughter's 3 years birthday. I asked to have a specific image added which I had requested in store however I was called on the day as this had gone missing and Deb, who made the cake I assume, knew nothing about this. I was advised that I should not have come in and requested the image but emailed through my request with attachment. I responded with how could I have known when I was advised by someone in store. Interestingly when I picked up the cake 30 min later it had the right image on and looked marvellous. However I felt somewhat set back by this miscommunication. The cafe was very busy at the time of pick up meaning I had to wait in store for a good 10 min with a 3 year old, which was really hard.
At the party, the cake tasted great and everyone was amazed. It was not too expensive given the size. I strongly recommend this shop but please make sure all requests are emailed through and re-confirmed for correctness

Approximate cost: $60

This review is for Animal Land Farm, Diggers Rest VIC

This is a great place for children - the site has tours at specific times a day, these are well organized with milking of cows, feeding of ducks, chickens and sheep and a drive around in the tractor to see the different animals. Very involving and gives a first hand experience with the animals which the children absolutely love. There are also free pony rides and a playground for the children to play in.
There is a cafe there but not much to buy there and basic toilets which probably need some renovation. The staff showing the animals was very friendly however at the cafe and at the ponies' staff was less enthusiastic. A bit of expensive compared to other animal farms but given the experience, totally worth it!
