Coffs Harbour Nightlife Tips by unravelau

Nightlife Spot: A carnival with side shows and rides --

Not only for the family but I have spotted many young lovers and grannies and pops as well. Entertainment for all, day and night is available at this venue. The area is used for the whole of the Christmas New Year break by this same group every year. Other organisations bring their big tops to entertain us at other times. Circuses and live shows of all types appear virtually overnight.......do their days or nights and then give way again to the helicopter rides, kite flying, lets have a spin on a harley etc. All great fun.

Nightlife Spot: Coffs Harbour ex Services Club

Coffs Harbour's ex Services Club is usually the all in one destination for weekend night fun. Take last Friday for instance (6th Oct 2006). Tapis_Volant (aka Nettie) and myself met up with Tiabunna (aka George) and his wife Pauline at the Club for a chat and a meal. Little did we know [this is what happens when you (meaning me) doesn't keep abreast of things] but Leo Sayer was also 'at the club'. My first awareness was when Nettie and I, walking down the corridor, brushed past this person and Nettie gives me a nudge while saying.....hey Carole that's Leo Sayer.....who? What? Says I......what are you talking about....ah Carole, you are always in a dream....he must be playing the club to-night. Ohhhhh. This meant that the dining room was horribly busy and were taking bookings, promising to let us know when a table would be available...... They didn't let us know and it wasn't until an hour later that George, just about fainting from hunger, went to check and found that we could indeed eat then. We did have a lovely time over a few drinks and getting to know one another. Unfortunately Nettie had to leave before we got to the dinner part. We enjoyed our dinner and George and I enjoyed a bottle of what turned out to be a favourite wine of both he and I....you guessed it.

The meal, wine (among other liquid refreshments), chat and meeting was simply lovely and we took our leave of one another after 10...... They, George and Pauline were to head off North to meet up with more vters the next morning after a quick look at the Dutch ship (The Duyfken) in the harbour and I was heading north to Dreamworld with family.......obviously the right place for me. LOL
