Biggest load of wank I have read since finishing tertiary education.

I think Engineers Australia is only beneficial if you're doing your post grad studies in engineer -> Charted Status.

Apart from that, no use paying a few hundred dollars a year to be a member....

contiki tour = overpriced brothel

[Down_Shift]

Hey guys,
Is justjap the cheapest place to get coilpacks? $600 for splitfire... apart from amaniya/overseas.

[kaitoukid]

^Maybe kudos? Will be like $20 or so less from memory. So not significantly different. Unless I'm thinking of something else.

[UNR33L]

nengun is cheapest for coilpacks

Disagree.

A lot of tours from what I hear you can sleep in a different bed every night, however you can still have fun in other ways and do heaps of stuff in a short amount of time.

I went to NZ for 13 days, both islands and did a shit ton of stuff. $350 flights return (in 2010 after first earthquakes) $1500 for 13 nights quad-share. Every 2nd place we stayed at didn't have quad-share so got upgraded to twin-queen share. didnt have to book a thing other than contiki and flights. so nice not having to organise transport and accommodation.

we were lucky and had a good tight-knit group (went by myself) and only one person got laid, and it was to a local lol. 40% were Aus which is apparently very rare for NZ trips.

However, the contiki Europe trips are a different story. accommodation is cheap to mediocre hostels with little flexibility as far as time restraints and activities goes.

If I was to go on a another tour, it would be with Intrepid for more interesting locations.
