[Booney]

good to see you sampling the Southern Vales Boon!

Still yet to get to Bonny's but will give it a crack in the next month. Porties is under going quite a resurgence atm, council needs to be congratulated with a lot of the work they have done down there and support of local businesses.

Porties is booming, but the Council canned the popular food, wine festival at the end of beach road.

Might take the old girl down when they have the "Coast and cars"(?) event in early Feb, weather permitting.

We went to the opening of the Cabana Club at Porties a few weeks ago with Mrs HH3's friends.

Basically just fenced of an area in front of the surf club, and put some cuban music on. Wasn't my cup of tea. Ended up leaving and going to Cafe De' Vilis instead.

The Parap Tavern

took the two crotchfruit to the Parap Tavern.

An ALM pub up here but Wednesday is $8.50 schnitty nite.

3 schnittys ordered, a bit of the wait for the food but not too excessive.

For $8.50 you don't expect to much but they were decent enough and the schnitty was served perfectly, chips to the side!!!

Value, 8/10 - D
Service 4.5/10 - P2
Food 5/10 - P2

Thats one schnitter for that price in SA, especially the Barossa, you expect that when one bloke has a monopoly on all the main pubs in the area. does anyone know if theres any anti competition laws around that?

Murray Bridge Club :

Stayed at Murray Bridge Tourist Park Friday and Saturday night for Sounds by the River in Mannum on Saturday. Driving up Friday I thought a XXXX Gold, maybe two on the way up, behave, go to the pub for dinner, another Gold or two and back to the Park to hit the contents of the esky.

Check in at the park and get told the Free Community Bus will pick us up, take us to the club and drop us back when we're ready. Look out esky!

Also get told to show our room key and we'll get 10% off the meals. Nice. Friends are with us so the 4 of us head off with Jeff the Community Bus driver, ripper bloke, 5 minute drive and we're there at 6pm. Walk in as Margaret "spins the wheel" and it's 40% off tap beer and base spirits for the next 30 minutes, onya Marg!

Two pales, two rose, "That'll be $17.90 thanks" "Here's $20, that'll do" - "Don't be silly" she says, "chuck these two 1's in the pokes and see how ya go!" Nothing, but not the point.

In the mean time Marg is booted off the wheel, Dennis spins up 30% off. Dennis, that's shit. Come on mate.

2 beef schnitzels, 1 chicken, I went the 300g rump, all came with big country cut chips, salad bar was good enough, 3 salads in the cold section, roast spuds, pumpkin and corn in the hot. With the 10% from the park discount, 2 more beers, 2 more rose and a grand total of $91.

Schnitzels had a cracking crumb, hanging off the plate, the rump was perfect medium, all the gravy's thick and full of flavor, chips on the side not under the schnitty. Chuck in 2 sheets of 5 tickets in the meat tray raffle and we've got 10 shots at winning 1 of the 8 meat trays.

Third spin and BANG Boon gets himself a meat tray. Go up and pick and nice one, few bits of BBQ steak, some patties, some snags, probably enough for 4 people so I track Margaret down ( I'm about 7 or 8 pints in now ) and tell her she deserves this for the 40% off spin earlier.

Oh dear. I get a sloppy one on the cheek, she runs her hand down my back far enough to get some arse cheek and gives me a hug. Marg was up for it and Mrs Boon reckons I should have gone for it. "Saves me doing it" She was several Rose in by now.

The MB Club :

Food - 9/10
Value - 10/10
Ambiance - 9/10 ( Members draw, Friday night! )
Patrons - Mildly randy

Not sure I'd live there but if I did I'd be a member at the MB Club and Mrs Boon reckons Margy would be trouble!

[Spargo]

[Dutchy]

[mighty_tiger_79]

[valleys07]

[Brodlach]

I reckon Marg polished off the lot. Likes a bit of meat by the sound of it.

[HH3]

She only wanted to sausage. Let Booney keep the meat tray.
