True, but you have to make your own fun. Im gonna try and find a few mates to see if they want to buy a few paintball guns, and play on one of their properties in mareeba. Should be great fun

Just for the hell of it, stage outside the local police hq and drop the biggest burnout you can!

now if that does'nt give you some entertainment for the next couple of months nothing will!

NOTHING, I was there in Feb. and could not wait to get out of the place.

You could probably hang out with my brother-in-law but he drives a holden, so never mind that. The only thing I found you could do there, really, is to drink and fish.

well since ive been in innisfail for like 17 years prior to moving to townsville for uni i dont think cairns is an option....no offense but i hate it and its only good at nite and when u have a piece of crap car on top of stockland..HAHA

as for fishing not excitment here well i dont no many other places besides the riverside gardens river HAHA

drinking....yes when i go back home too many exams now and i NEED to pass them

the burnout in front of the local police station i think they would just shoot me cause when i first came here i parked out the front but it was only a police car park and about 10 of the bastards pretty much ran out to me....so first reaction was put my hands up
(when i leave townsville for melbourne yes i will definently do it and just say i left my handbrake on)

anyways see you cairns people on the 17th and 18th and 19th and 20th and 21st of June
