Does anyone have the old "Wouldn't it be wonderful if the world was wonderland" ad?

I remember going there with a family firend, as a kid, as he delivered wood for the Bush Beast. Was annoyed when the NSW Govt in their infinite stupidity sold it to Chinese developers. It's now a major industrial area with places like LG and Asic having large warehouses located there. If you are ever in Sydney you can still drive past and "feel the ghosts" as it were, just head along the M7 or Wallgrove Rd toward the M4.

It was an expensive day out but enjoyed it every year. Shame I can't take my kids there. The bush beast used to shake because it was all timber. The best memories

I liked the part where they said "to much fun"

[xpv8]

I loved that place,...too much land and not enough wonder though.

Still a shame it closed

Love all you folks out there being ignorant. I think you'll find that nobody went to Wonderland anymore, it became too costly to run and they had no choice but to sell. If you could see even half of what was on the maintenance side of their rides whilst still operational, you'd shit bricks.
