Weipa - Great fishin. No chicks, too many angry miners.
Horn Island - CRAZY! Excellent rock climbing (bring ya first aid)
Cairns - Home again
Townsville - We're goin to the mad cow shaggs, bring Fat Cat and lowe !

SC
No jack when i was there in 97. But we did have a nasty camp cook called Cheryl who spent her whole life in Thargomindah and has never seen the sea. Also a whole gang of cattle throwin, ugly shelia r@@tin and warm beer drinkin ringers to keep me amused.
Spent a fair bit of time at Nappa Merrie (site of the dig tree near Innaminca for those who don't sabe) and that was great too. Best fun flying I've ever had.
