so much to remember, so much to love

It hurts to think of it demolished. Somehow it was a subversive secret. Makes a mockery of overpriced soulless accommodation. A gift of love and beauty to the like-minded that recognised and cherished it.

Dearest Marshall... can't believe the chalets have gone !!

It was a truly memorable & accepting space - a wonderland of kitsch glory. I've never found anywhere in Qld that compared in design, or the warmth imbued by Marshall & Colin but I'm sure there were others that met the same fate decades before I arrived. What lovely men with a wonderfully ecclectic attitude to the gathering & preservation of ephemera & parts of other once loved island buildings. I wish it was still here. We can all name haunts; once majestic homes bulging with creative activity; & venues, hotels, warehouses, galleries & inner city studios etc that met that fate. The attitude of the ruling culture towards history (pre & post invasion) bewildered me. People complained about a lack of history despite being surrounded by it. The answer to 12 yr old me seemed simple - stop employing the Dean bros. It would have been a timely solution. I still ponder the Qld that could have been had many buildings remained & sites respected. Most of my old watering holes are gone. I miss so much of their character - from plaster work to fireplaces; rooftops & long verandas; humid nights, cool breezes & cold drinks; creaking elevators; features from the 1870's through to the Target building's space age appeal of primary colours & plastic bubbles; creativity driven by passion & sometimes high youth unemployment...& occasional table top dancing. It's a long list of missed buildings. I keep promising to contribute content Paul. The digitising will eventually happen. I'll likely find some surprising gems & hopefully some from my summer in the Chalets. Fun times.

And if anyone is keen to write a little story about this fabulous queer artist-run place with some photos this is the new community archives zine anthology we are making this year and next of you would like to contribute : ) remix.org.au/extrazine
