  Hi all, I’m just heading up to Backstop (Respite House) for a fortnight (my third time)
  And I just thought I’d ask for suggestions for activities. I am in an Electric Wheel Chair, but get on maxi taxi’s ok, as well as the train (wish they’d make those boarding ramps a bit wider :-) I know there’s the shopping centres & cinemas, and the pub over the road from Backstop. But I’m just thought I’d ask for other peoples ideas, on how best they fill the day in.

  There’s a good pathway that goes down through Sweeneys Reserve and follows the Pine River for miles. It’s a nice quiet drive. If your batteries are good you can get to the North Pine country makets. Nice pub there.
  
  When are you looking at going in?

  There’s cinema’s at Westfield (5 min taxi) Anzac Ave RSL, Lawnton pub is nice, take the path under the rail line over the river and your there – go in the back way. If you’re adventurous continue on to Pine Rivers Bowls Club. mmm a dozen garlic prawns. A mate and I often do pub crawls from backstop once ending at Shorncliffe!. Morgans Seafood is nice (20min taxi) at Scarbrough. Hell, if you’re really bored you could come have a beer (10min taxi) and see my joint.
