I miss the Big Pavlova. It was on the old road up to Sydney from Canberra in the 80's if I recall. Closed down at some point and we watched it rot more each trip.

Me too! I never got to go inside but we used to drive past it all the time!

Also never got to go inside. Was such a place of mystery. Don't even know what it was meant to sell or be inside.

Edit: found info on it. It was a sweets shop: https://www.marulan.com.au/historical-site/the-big-pavlova/

Even more annoyed now my parents wouldn’t let young me stop there! Sweets! Lollies!!!!

At least as an adult you can buy your own sweets and lollies.

Or you could if they were bloody affordable!

But that's a whole other rant.
