This is my favourite snooker hall.  If someone suggests playing 9-ball, 8-ball or snooker, I will pretty much always say yes, whether I am busy or not.  I used to go to this particular pool hall when I was a kid, so it has a lot of memories for me.  My Mum and I would drive down here, she would buy me a hot chocolate, and then beat me at pool.  I was a little shit of a kid and hated losing to her so there were some temper tantrums.  The issue is that I not only hated losing but I hated winning because I assumed that when I won she was "going easy".  Same shit with my Dad and Scrabble etc. 
 
It isn't licensed, so it's a nice way to spend a night without drinking.  They turn a blind eye if you BYO but we never do that.  I prefer to have a milkshake.  Because it is unlicensed there are a lot of religious-types who come and play, meaning it is one of the more multicultural venues in the neighbourhood (it is in the middle of a famous grungy pub and club district).

A section of parklands along a creek about seven kilometres from the CBD.  I used to come here a lot when I was a kid with the first family dog.  Many great memories. 
 
It is mostly Silurian silt/sandstones and blue stone, it used to be a rubbish tip and all vegetation has been hand-planted by city dwellers since its conversion forty years ago.

I try to come here at least once a month to walk Norva and bask in nostalgia.  I have to drive to get there which is the only negative.  There are some nice strip shops nearby that I sometimes go to and grab a cawfee and halloumi pie on the way.

There are some, but they are about 5 hours south from me.  Round here is just a bunch of flat land, not much in the way of cool woods to hike or explore in.  I found one big park that was kinda neat but it had big cell phone towers in it then I found out from one of my friends that it used to be the town dump, so that kind of killed it.
