Growing up as an 80s kid in Brisbane, SEQ watching this brings back fun memories of people enjoying themselves doing lots of outdoor activities e.g. swimming, thrillrides, grundies, waterslides, windsurfing before technology and smartphones really took over people's ability to engage with others on a personal level and actually go out and do things! I love seeing these clips and living it as an 80s kid! P.S. It's great seeing Jackie McDonald. Her sister Fiona. Big names back then among other local and state celebrities. Thanks for posting 🎉❤
I went to the GC for the first time since the early 90's a couple of years ago and couldn't believe how much more built up it was. Massive high rises everywhere. Looking at this footage it's funny at how bare it looks without so many high rises.
those days well and truly gone now just crack heads and wankers from down south, who think the roads are paved with gold now way to many people living here came because of covid 19, under the mis-guided notion that they couldn't catch it here. idiots bought up big when the property prices went through the roof. Now the arse end is falling out of the market and interest rates going north it's farking hilarious. i surley miss the young woman who used to walk around surfers paradise in the string biknis, yeah that's all gone as well
When this was made, the Gold Coast was a great place.

To pay for your holiday place your money in a brown paper bag labelled Joh Bjelke-Peterson or Terry Lewis and hand it to a Queensland police officer
God damn, you're real.
