Hello all!
I've been on holidays for a fortnight, including 8 days on a trip up north. Back to reality now.:(
I was invited to run a whittling workshop up at Yeppoon Village folk festival, so took the family on a drive with the ute chockers with tent, tools, work bench parts and vices etc!!:eek: . We had a great time there, very nice place, then went over to Great Keppel Island for 3nights. What a beautiful place, especially at this time of year. We all relaxed: slept late, ate till we couldn't, and sauntered from beach to tennis court to pool & spa!!:D :cool: Went on the glass bottom boat, paddled the sea kayaks etc. Beers and food were pricey as expected ($5 a can for Aussie beer), but we only had to buy lunch, the other meals included. The actual resort is a tad worn looking, but the facilities and sheer beauty make up for it.
Now I'll get down to reading through the Forum again, its good to be home!:)

Cheers,

welcome back...lucky you!
....especially as a tinnie only costs $5:eek: up-wards of $6 is the norm down here in Mexico in a standard pub, let alone Great Keppel Island
