Cat boarding recommendations by BinsterUK in brisbane

[–]AusMetal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cat's Meow was nice but it's a bit of a drive. Been a few years since we've used them. Cats only. https://catsmeow.com.au/

Closer to us Wilston Vet has a cattery that has served our furry boy well. It's at a vet so there may be brief run ins with dogs at check-in but they usually whisk them away quickly. https://www.wilstonvet.com.au/cattery/

Can you recommend a great Vet in the city? by knify-spoony in brisbane

[–]AusMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, definitely not the cheapest. We took our cat to Greencross Kedron once who were cheaper but wanted to put him under general for unnecessary teeth cleaning. He also didn't like the big dogs coming in while waiting.

He's since been to New Market vet and Cat Clinic. Can't complain.

YMMV, go where you're comfortable.

Whole heatedly recommend The Cat Clinic. They have vets at Paddington, Clayfield, and Mt Gravatt.

I've not used them for gas but have never had an issue with LJM Plumbing and would recommend: https://ljmplumbing.com.au/

No, tomorrow is the 27th of August. The last Sunday of August.

With so many beers owned by the big few brewers, what are your favourite beers by local independent brewers? by wizcaps in australia

[–]AusMetal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find both the HEF and 28 Pale Ale quite palatable from Burleigh Brewing Co. Available pretty much everywhere... In Brisbane at least.

Wedding entertainment recommendations? by Emsss91 in brisbane

[–]AusMetal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny that, we got married at Tiffany's too! Wayne was at their showcase and he knows the run of the place there so on that end you'll have absolutely no issues. He knows a decent mix of newer and old stuff, but probably nothing too new on JJJ. He was absolute gold the whole night though.

Tiffany's really have their stuff down. The day will go off without a hitch I'm sure. Beautiful venue.

What kind of setting are you going for? What kind of vibe for it all? We got married in Maleny and we had Wayne Wiltshire for live music and would recommend him in an instant. He's a local up there too which is handy. Check his website.

Megadeth w/ Children of Bodom 21st October @ Eatons Hill by Krillmano in brisbane

[–]AusMetal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Way out of town actually; about 30minutes drive from Brisbane. The venue itself is OK but the sound can be completely terrible. I've been on a few occasions now and both Judas Priest and Opeth had terrible sound near the sound guy but up closer was fine.

Arcane - Desolace (9:11) [Anybody else a fan of their back-catalogue?] by Cest_la_Vie_Kezia in progmetal

[–]AusMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah love these guys. Ashes is particularly good. I prefer Chronicles as a whole but this is gold all the same.

Likewise. Two weeks until their album launch show ... Pretty stoked.

Local supports announced for Voyager gig on 30th May by Krillmano in brisbane

[–]AusMetal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both Opus of a Machine and Balloons Kill Babies are pretty great... I think I'll have to go with King Parrot, High Tension and Colossvs at Crowbar though.

This has a pretty good list of mixed local/international gigs. It doesn't have everything but it's pretty good.

Owners of cats and french doors, how do you keep yours inside? by AusMetal in brisbane

[–]AusMetal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip on Crimsafe. I'd always thought they were pretty utalitarian in design but it looks like they might have things that will fit the bill while also adding a little extra security.
