Wimps.

I went diving on the Barrier Reef in January a couple of years ago. It was perfect.

Thanks, Sally.

And as for you, Lord_Farquar, I notice you haven't been back to repeat the experience in 2 whole years!!

Actually, I went back again a year ago!

Would love to work up there but sadly haven't found anything.

Lord_Farquar - my deepest and most heart-felt apologies for my hasty words. Are there really so few jobs to be had, by the way? What were you looking for?

Job situation is not good here at the moment but it will vary depending on what you are looking for.
Unfortunately, as Cairns is so tourism dependent, the local economy has yet to recover & we are looking at another big employer going down the pan this week which will put 30 electricians looking for work!
There are some good deals to be had if you want a holiday up here at the moment though!
