Lunch, Sunday



Whilst having lunch today at Portside with a friend from Airlie Beach (in North Queensland) we couldn't help but notice a rather large vessel berthed at the terminal. The Boadicea is valued at A$90m and is owned by the Australian game show tycoon Reg Grundy. His wife is from Ipswich nearby to Brisbane. The five-deck, 71m Dutch-built vessel is the 40th largest superyacht in the world. It has a cinema, piano, gym, swimming pool, 8m jetboat and jet-skis on board - and costs $420,000 a week to hire.

It would be a nice invitation for all your Dutch friends! Should I begin packing?? :-)

wow, who would have thought you could get that from re-runs of The Sullivans and Sons & Daughters, haha.

Thanks for the lunch - it was deeelicious & a great venue, despite the cyclonic wind that almost blew us to Ipswich ourselves!!
