and fish and chips are fantastic (IMO), not greasy like the UK (though most people here tell me they like their fish and chips greasy )

Oh as well as no snakes and one native poisonous spider (unlike OZ land)

As well as it's not full of Aussies

We didn't make it to Cath Cove as a member of our group felt ill, but SBay was stunning - the only thing that marred it was a bloke and his two kids trying their hardest to capture a stingray and frightening the poor thing almost to its death - it zoomed past us so fast that it slammed into a rock. I'm not over it yet...
