The Palace biggrin



I first played with poi on the roof of that hostel rolleyes



And there's lots near it...






Which city? Sydney? Brisbane? There are lots of backpackers called the Palace. SOme of them used the be run by the Salvation Army for poor working travelling locals... then they were called the *People's Palace.*



Written by: Patrick the Bubba Badger



Hey newgabe, I could maybe put some flyers up here in Sydney?

Cheers!






That would be very cool. I will email you a flyer to copy a few of, or else mail you some... PM me your contact details.

Meanwhile I will get a copy of the flyer put on the website for easy access...

Hahahhahaah.
And to think I spent four months living there and avoided the bar for most of it...

Puh. What a wasted opportunity.

(and I never thought I'd say that about the Down Under bar ubblol)
