I think it goes without saying that you've got to hit up the Mana Bar. If not yourself then do it for me. I really want to go there.

Having a feeling that visiting the Mana Bar and kidnapping yahtzee will rank pretty high up in my priorities. I do hope the Mana Bar serve Portal shots ( http://www.thedrunkenmoogle.com/post/275059321/teleportation-shots-portal-shots-first-shot ) else i'll be pretty disappointed. D:

As an Australian myself, I suggest that you hire a kangaroo for your travels. You can just jump in their pouch and go wherever you like.

lol On a serious note, there are lots of backpackers I'm sure you can work something out. Just watch out for drop bears. (Edit) Oh also visit Yahtzee's Mana Bar, it's pretty awesome.

You will probably be fine. The only wildlife to actually be fearful for is Dropbears.

You are from the UK, so by default, you will have no trouble picking up girls.

Places to Avoid: Taree, Redfern, Tamworth, Alice Springs.

But.. But.. But.. Alice Springs looks so welcoming in the middle of the desert miles away from civilisation and what have you :(

Honestly more people die every year from falling coconuts then any animal mentioned on these lists, now Drop Bears on the other hand...

All these people mentioning the Mana Bar keep making me want to actually go there for once, anyone familiar with the layout of Brisbane know how far it is away from Anne Street/or the State Law building, wondering if I could get there and back during lunch...

Unless you live in Christchurch...they kinda got owned today.
Really? What happened?

OT: Avoid the Outback, avoid going to the toilet at night, and keep all clothes off the floor. Aside from that, enjoy.
Earthquake. Heh

Do not go to Mildura! they suck backpackers in with promises of work, don't deliver, and you'll never leave...
Fruity Lexia is the most bearable type of goon (cheap wine)

I loved Melbourne and Cairns while I was backpacking, definitely try skydiving and check out the reef.

Enjoy your time in oz! :)

Well it seems that as you are coming in the summer you should be warned that you are going to get sun burnt like you have never been sun burnt before. So wear sunscreen, lots and lots of sunscreen.

Also don't walk in the tall grass or stick your hand where you cant see (i.e cracks and crevices). Do those and i assure you unless you do something monumentally stupid you will not have to worry about the wildlife.

Also expect for someone to pick a fight with you at least once. Hopefully you wont have any trouble with this as you will be backpacking and everyone will probably want to tell you how awesome Australia is but i would advise you be careful anyway.

Also ive heard Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane are all good for skating. I know Melbourne is covered in good parks but ive never been to the other two so i cant guarantee that.

Also avoid Canberra, there is nothing to do there.

If you ever travel down to victoria, come to Morwell, it's a town in gippsland. fairly friendly.
