Bass Hill Drive-in in the early 80’s..ahh. P plates on the Monaro, girlfriend in the back seat etc etc. In its early days it had a playground down near the screen which even ran a small ride-on train. I can still smell the chips from the cafeteria now…
The Bass Hill Drive-in was demolished(after trying to heritage list the site!) in October 2007. The site has been turned into a development site(housing estate?).
