hehehehe you can go balls to the wall and still get away with something cheap - friends of mine did that, ended up giving up the dream big wedding and loved their small one

Balls to the wall, for those interested in the etymology of such things:

Old steam engines had a governor rod with ball shaped spinning weights on the ends. When the engine was running at maximum speed centrifugal force moved the balls all the way out

Really? I always thought it was a term used to describe when you push the throttle on older aircraft all the way to the max position. The little balls on the top of the throttle were pushed right against the panel, hence balls to the wall.

I believe both are accepted as correct, although the exact origin is unknown.

Havenā€™t been myself, but a mate of mine was there with his son this past Saturday. Says it is amazing. Huge Star Wars section - his son is a big SW fan. All licensed merch, no Fong Kong knock offs that he saw. Sadly also means prices are pretty steep with our kak exchange rates. He said he could easily have spent 10 times what he did if heā€™d had his credit card with him, and not just cash.

One of the more questionable times in my life was:

Being a background tree in a school concert, and the trees had to wear lipstick. LIPSTICK!
