'Blockaide Australia' ... 'Live Rat - Live' appeared on the boards around a long abandoned then demolished Ampol petrol station, now a vacant lot. Interestingly, it upset someone, and was painted over a couple of days ago, as if it never was.

Operating from 1953-1997 on the outskirts of town, the Starlight Drive-in held fond memories for locals.
All that remains is the entrance sign, now barely visible from the adjacent highway, standing lonesome and only accessible by foot.
The site was cleared in the 2000s, now occupied by 'Starlight' apartments.
