It has been a bit of a sad time for Nambour, after the move out of (many) of the council workers a lot of local businesses closed - including some very old ones like the book exchange, the cobblers and the cinema.

But there's some good news: the old Majestic, now rebranded as Nambour cinema, is reopening on the 5th of December. Seats are $10 for standard and $15 for premium so please go and see a movie - and maybe stop for a coffee or a beer afterwards and support some of the locally owned places around there.

I'm not in any way related to the business, but I love being able to see a movie without having to head over the Plaza.

I'm trying to figure out if a very close encounter I had at sargeants bay a few years ago was coyotes like I had initially thought, or maybe sea wolves? My partner & I were on a bike camping trip & landed there at the end of a long day, we decided we'd have to stay for the night despite finding only one spot to set up a hammock, so I ended up sleeping on the ground. My partner passed out way before me because they actually had a comfortable sleeping set up & I was laying there wide awake on the lumpy ground listening to a lot of chaotic howling going on around me, which was a bit nerve rattling. I had almost fallen asleep from pure exhaustion when I heard crunching of pebbles as more than one animal approached me, while I was trying to figure out wtf to do, one of them ended up getting so close I could hear sniffing through the sleeping bag that I'd pulled up over my head. My head was being sniffed by either wolves or coyotes while I was laying on the ground, cue panic. I didn't know what to do but had to do something, so i landed on bolting my body upright as fast as possible in the hope they'd get freaked out, rather than waiting to see if they felt like doing a taste test. I'm still alive, so I'm relieved to say it worked & they scattered. Wildly enough I ended up passing out again maybe an hour later while these animals were still running around on the beach (probably a dumb move in hindsight, but the exhaustion hit me like a brick). As far as I know they didn't approach me again, if they did i slept through it. It was dark when this all happened & I had some moonlight, but not enough to get a really good look. If anyone in the area knows about local wolf populations, etc, I'd be curious to know which is more likely. Wolves or coyotes? There were probably ten of them on the beach & I know I'm super lucky I didn't get mauled. We hid our food very far away from us as always while bike camping, for safety reasons, & put a rock on it. That was untouched in the morning. I think I was approached out of curiosity (what is this big, bright blue worm thing on the beach?), not hunger, if they wanted to kill me they easily could have.

Keep family and friends away. A beautiful piece of land destroyed by greed and mismanagement!

Please repost...

A lack of care from any management has led me here, in almost every room i can confirm theres mould.

This is something I've reported many times to my management many times, yet they've continued to place guests in these rooms without proper precautions.

They treat staff like crap, lack of care for our equipment, even leave us without the necessary equipment to do our job, even our chemical rooms and linen rooms are disgusting and mouldy.

Instead of spending money on renovations and cleaning up these massive problems, they've cut costs and pushed for more "productivity".

What they're doing is illegal and I'm looking for help to spread this story.

Fridge seals in almost every room covered in mould.

Mould in furniture around February this year, was wiped with a cloth and given to guests.

Morning! I’m looking for some recommendations for tattooists on the coast.

I’m wanting a fine line(ish), abstract piece created for my forearm with a cover up of a shitty wrist tattoo if possible.

Drop me their IG handles so I can check them out.

Thanks heaps 🫶

This is going to sound so lame to most but please help this woman in her mid 30’s 😅 How ‘dressy’ is Bistro C and what’s the demographic for Saturday night cocktails and dinner? My partner and I haven’t gone out in a long long time and don’t want to over/under estimate the dress code. Thank you ✌🏼

Anyone else hit by this virus doing the rounds? It has knocked the stuffing out of me, Mrs and both teenagers. Def not COVID or Influenza, or RSV as they showed negative on test kit.

Anyone see the incident going on at The Storage facility on Maroochydore Rd this afternoon? Cops, Two ambulances and quite a few worried persons talking to police while paramedics where doing their thing. Hope and pray anyone there is ok. 🙏

Looking at moving to Sunshine Coast from New Zealand. I qualify for the first home buyers thing over there, but see that you have to build for under 750k all up house and land. Don't know where you could do that on Sunny Coast. I see different stuff about Aura and Harmony, Village Green etc but don't know where to start as have contacted different building or developer type things over there and don't really hear anything back. I don't know how anybody can live on a 300 sqm odd section. Sounds oppressive. BUt buying a already established house racks up some horrific stamp duty which I doubt I would be able to afford. Who can afford that? We don't have such a thing in NZ. Any recommendations for living and buying vs building over there would be appreciated. I need to be near (driving distance) Palmview because of the school there.

If you went to the thrill masters/war on wheels/monster truck event that happened on Saturday 23rd you would know that there was a big accident where a motorcyclist was unable to get up and had to be carried off the field by an ambulance.

I'm just wondering if there is any updates on them, if they are ok? Because I just wanted to know if they ok and what not. For the past few days since the event, I couldn't find anything online, but I do hope that the motorcyclist is ok.

Best CrossFit gyms close to Maroochydore?

I have experience

Hi all, my girlfriend and I are relocating to Sunshine Coast in early January and are just looking at rental properties.

We were meant to have accommodation sorted through a rugby club there but they’ve said they can’t find anything.

Would anyone have any recommendations on real estate agents to contact about going on a mailing list?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

We are Coolum based and looking for a great school for our 6 year old daughter next year. She is very sweet and kind and may be swallowed up by a big school but would be open to any suggestions on the coast. Ideally a school with a big heart as where she currently goes she doesn’t fit the mould.

Hi, I came for the name/ the good weather and I feel scammed. Is this weather, all the rain and storms normal? Please give a confused European guidance!

Thanks cheers

EDIT: Thanks everyone!! I can sleep and enjoy the rain in peace now!

In Beerwah

It's been sold, the cafe closed yesterday (24 Nov). Anyone know what happened?

Anyone 4WDing northbound on Teewah beach tomorrow? I’m doing part of the cooloola great walk, wondering if I can skip some kilometres and grab a hitchhike from Teewah?

More than happy to chuck in $ as a thank you. Important to say - I’m healthy & well, not requesting a rescue! I’m sufficiently equipped and supplied

Does anyone know a tavern or similar where we can have a get-together with a traditional christmas meal before the 25th? Roast turkey and the trimmings?

Thank you

Looking for some good locations to set up and work for a couple hours.

Are there any particular beachside spots suitable? Any cafes/restaurants that are particularly good for this type of thing? Or libraries?

Anywhere with nice vibe and ambiance and amenities if possible

I’m getting around on a motorbike so a more niche part of question would be places where there’s motorbike parking, but appreciate that’s super specific lol

Noosa's iconic nightclub The Rock, which has been around since the 80s with a few different owners, is offering a soft opening this weekend. https://yelo.live/noosa-nightclub-set-to-reopen-this-weekend/

I'm try to get some things made for my family for christmas. I already bought the material but the person who agreed to make it has fallen through.

Does anyone know how I may be able to find someone to sew 3 aprons before christmas and how much someone might charge for that?

Any help would be appreciated.
