Point blank? Doh!

You've been spending too much time in the sun, mate. In my original post, I wrote:
Eg from Sydney, NZ aside, it takes about 7-8 hours to get to another country"
Now, I've already agreed with your point that there are closer countries than 7-8 hours from Sydney - but, clearly I did not refer to times from any point in Australia. So, the Cairns example was irrelevant.

Or are reading and logic taught differently in Oz?

Too much time in the sun? I wish: I work 12 hour nights in a class 1 cleanroom.

I'm looking forward to spending too much time in the sun.

Sounds familiar. I did much the same until about 6 years ago.
