On hols, but on call if something diabolical happens, not that I would expect much to happen this week

Close but no cigar. It is 5pm in Thailand. 3 hours difference to Brisbane and 4 hours to Sydney. :roll: The sunsets at around 6pm anyway. Not much more to do during the day other than get ready for nightlife.

So you did not like my mini trip report.

Well no point bothering with a full trip report. Pretty boring anyway.

What is wrong with getting ready for dinner and a few ales? Window shopping past all the street vendors? The statement should have read "Not much more to do during the rest of the day, between 5pm and 6pm, other than get ready for nightlife." All very innocent.

Can anyone recommend 3 must play golf courses in Adelaide or surrounds that the public can play for a reasonable price. I am a full member of an AGU affiliated golf club with an AGU handicap.

Any advice on reasonable accommodation with qff point earning ability would also be appreciated. Best Western I think is OK but which property? I will be hiring a car so it does not have to be city centre.
