You do have to watch out for blue ringed octopus as they are deadly. Here is a YouTube vid of the beach.

that's a relief!

i've heard someone else say about the blue-ringed octopus before....
Do kids get taught all about these kind of things (including the spiders to avoid etc) at school when they're young? or is it left to the parents to educate their kids about all those kind of things). I do worry about that as we need educating ourselves!!!

thanks for the youtube link - i havent thought about looking up Tassie on there before... will have a nose at the weekend to see what kind of video's are on there... some are often quite amusing on youtube...

Loads in the press about the pulp mill as well as on TV. It's a big issue with the Tasmanians and i witnessed a few heated debates about it. Some people call Tasmania, Gunnsmania as they almost own it so i am told. I was told that any land you buy has a clause in it stating that any minerals found etc belongs to the state (Gunns) I don't know if this is true but a few locals told me that.
