Location Map of Belconnen C.I.B. to the Private Bin and Duntroon:

Belconnen C.I.B. is a suburb of Canberra about 8km from Duntroon. ‘The Private Bin’ nightclub is located midway between the two.  It  is a business tenant within the arched ‘Sydney Building’ on level G (ground floor) at address 32 Northbourne Avenue, Civic, ACT 2601.  The premises and business has long since been renamed and is currently ‘Reload Bar and Games’. 

Site of the stabbing:

Formerly the ‘Private Bin’ (tavern and nightclub) |  Currently the ‘RELOAD BAR AND GAMES’  |    https://reloadbar.com.au/  |   Check out 3D video tour of the inside of the premises via the website link.   The venue has a similar use as previously, even interior layout is similar; and given the name, still attracts military cadets and NCO’s from nearby Duntroon and ADFA.

Yeah, we get the association – RELOADing booze instead of magazines.   But why not perhaps nickname this venue ‘The Stab and Squelch’, or ‘Knight’s R&R’ (Renunciation & Retribution), or ‘The 3am Switchblade’ or ‘Mongo’s Faux Pas’?
