i was checking prices last night and its cheaper to go to Fiji

I know alot of people that have been to Figi and they say it is a beautiful place.

 

A friend of mine goes there regularly..............if it was me, I would be going there and not Bali.

Cheaper than $180 return with hot seats, meal, and 30kg baggage? Accommodation for less than $100 per night beach front?
Most of you only see what the media show you, Bali is much much more than Kuta! You can have any type of holiday you choose.
Most people I know that have been to Fiji say it's lovely but not much to do.
You'll never never know if you never never go! Lol

same reason some people jump out of planes or undertake other risk bearing activities?

 

No brains The adrenaline rush? Cos they can? To say they did it? To get into the Guinness book of Records? Peer Pressure? Cos it's "trendy"

 

*shrugs* dunno....

No Crikey because we love the island, the people and the places we choose to visit.
Saying we have no brains is presumptuous and rude!

I'm sorry witches,  I couldn't read your post.

I know you probably think its pretty, but really,

you just blinded me

It's nothing to do with the post, I'm guessing it's your monitor. Is it one of those you can adjust the brightness? Before I bought a new LED monitor I had the same problem. I cut the brightness back by 90% which made it bearable but prolonged looking at the screen was sending me blind.

 

These new LED monitors are better. Witches post is lovely & clear to read & I just felt compelled to mention it. Cheers.

Just OT for a moment.. my laptop is brand new and brightness is set at about 15%

I doubt it was food poisoning, at least not a naturally occurring case of food poisoning from pathogens consumed in the 6 hours prior to death, can't rule out that someone may have purposely laced their food with a poison... maybe they got food intended for somebody else?

 

well an ayutopsy can, but no results from that yet, so the rest is all speculation.

 

 

 

 have you heard of the Fugu ,Japanese delicacy made from  pufferfish  which contain lethal doses of TTX ?

Why would people eat known toxic  sea creatures ?

Muggsy - this post! I was responding to it! I mustn't have turned the page or sumfin, and if you look, it does say "in response to izab"

 

it wasn't aimed at you!

crikey, if you read back, you did respond to iza. mugssy misread it

Haha don't sweat it Crikey, it's one of my favourite sayings from Willy Wonker!
"For a student to teach a teacher is both presumptuous and rude"
I don't care what people think about me going to Bali, I just wish our media would show both sides but I suppose tens of thousands of people a year having a great time isn't news?
