TISM nailed it, in Hell it's always schoolies week.


It's my wife's 40th and we booked a place outside of Byron for a few nights to celebrate with family. Us and another very bemused looking couple were literally the only non-schoolies on the flight up, although in all fairness our one and two year olds were probably the worst behaved on the plane.

Just got back from a shopping run to Woolies in Byron and all I can say is, the horror, the horror. I've never seen so many shopping trolleys overflowing with soft drinks and chips. And they all follow each other around like sheep with absolutely no concept of personal space.

I weep for the future.

I get yr point but I wouldn't go to any place in Bali where schoolies would be even when it isn't schoolies season.

Bali is fine away from those kinda places.

At AUD2000 per person per night I want my own bathroom and a bed big enough to comfortably sleep the “works”.

Very bad day today. Looks like my mobile phone signal blocker has blocked its last signal. Can't find anyone to repair, tried myself but no luck.

By the sounds of it, his mobile signal blocker has stopped working and even though he tried to fix it, it still isn't working.

...no shit

What is a mobile signal blocker and why do you need it?

Most of Australia is trying to find a signal

Andana isn't in Australia iirc. They're illegal here anyway. Its just a signal jammer for mobiles.

From my experience, it's a Vodafone mobile.

I like quiet. Don't want to hear about peoples dull, boring existence as servile consumers.
I also travel on night trains and don't want to be woken by phones constantly ringing.
