Anyone seen the apartment balcony on Old Clevland Road with the dinosaur on it? (sorry about quality, I was on a bus)

Was on the bus home with my girlfriend when I spotted this mid conversation and immediately forgot what I was talking about. I'm not sure whether she believed me.

Saw it the other weekend. Would be keen to know the story. I trust I will learn more in next week's Brisbane Times article.

It's been there for almost a month, it only occurred to me to post it today since, surprisingly, nobody else had

The balcony has a sign promoting a prop hire company. Perhaps someone who lives there works for/owns the company.

My boyfriend and I drove past this the other day and lost our shit, totally forgot what we were talking about and just whooped and hollered for a few blocks.

After reading your comment, I firmly believe your relationship will last forever

the mystery has been solved - colleague at work stumbled across this Gumtree advert.

Great! Also, first thing I saw in this comment was the URL section /other-wedding-parties/.

A dinosaur would make one hell of a reception.

I've seen a couple of these around Bris, theres another about the same size over at this airport parking place in eagle farm. I theorised theyre from Clive Palmers golf course - can anyone verify?

Hah, I ride past that one on my way to work. Have often wondered why it's there.

I may have been just a bit excited.... :P
