Yep. Was called Holiday Inn originally though. I was just a young lacky at the time. It was supposed to face The Esplanade square on but I stuffed up the pegs that's why she's at 45 degrees haha! Jokes!
I did have to crawl through one duct though to replace some broken insulation pins. That was a bit scary

Started back at work today after a 6 month break, without pay for the last 4 months, didn't qualify for Jobkeeper. Working from home to begin with, then a return to site when required. I can get the travel exemptions, but they are single journey only, so if I return to Vic from QLD, i will have to quarantine for the mandatory 2 weeks again - not that keen on that scenario, so will see how long I can hang off heading to QLD, as it will mean I am stuck up there until the QLD opens the borders.
Fired up the computer just now, 723 messages downloading, god its started again! - looks like 80% are from the motherhood brigade.

Successfully replacing the handbrake cable on the EB Falcon after a bit of drama...
I had the new cable fitted and used a torch to identify any sharp edge that could cut it.
I Found a couple of places, so removed it and put all parts in the D/S footwell.
After filing and bending the metal on the handle assembly, I fitted it to the car.
After a quick search, I couldn't find the end that joined the cable to the under car lever.
I pulled all the tools out of the foot well, lifted the carpet, searched under the seats, took all the stuff out from under the centre console and retraced my steps to the workshop.
No sign of the bloody part. Fast forward half an hour... I had even used a magnet to try and find the part in hard reach spots so I was thinking about ways to make a new piece.
I gave up looking and went to pack up the tools but when I picked up the torch, I found the part stuck to its magnetic base!!!
