After three glorius weeks down in Australia I´ve learned a few things that I thought would be good to spread. If someone that reads this are going down to visit Jeff please make sure you bring at least a few of theese things:

< An Umbrella... because how much people tells you that the Gold Coast always is sunny.... it´s not. >

< Solarium... see above. >

< Your own Koala Bear... because even if "Australia is crawling with Koalas", you´ll never see one if you don´t bring your own. >

< Snake repellent gear... because people will tell you that snakes are almost rare to see... that´s a lie. Snakes are everywhere and lethal. Make sure you are safe. >

< Your personal Irons... because apparantly there are so many Cane Toads arround that you need to wack them away with a club... >

< Your own Cane Toad... Because if you brought your clubs you will need a Cane Toad... and just to be sure... bring about ten of them... there are just a few in Australia. >

< Wonka Twisters.... because even if "every" store has this candy (one), it´s very hard to find. So make sure you have at least a couple kilos with you. >

And last but not least.... the one that is the most tricky.

< .... this one you need to be careful with. Make sure you are out in the surf when a friend gives this to you. Then you can always tell people that you got at least one barrel out in the surf. >

Anyways, Jeff - you have delivered! And me and Piffen can´t thank you enough for this amazing trip!

Thanks mate!
