Burnie McDonnalds. Woodchips in the middle of the city. They have a beach. That's it.

You could see the Catapillar factory.

make sure you wear shoes on the beach tho so you dont get a needle stuck in your foot.

um these burnie lookout, shopping is good, uumm.. shit, the place is a bit of a shit hole really. fuck knows why your going on holiday there lol.

how far do you want to travel?? id recommend going to Stanley which is about 60km's west of burnie, make a day of it and walk up the nut which is a big grassy rock. these a great fish and chip show that do fresh fish. food it tops there. on your way you could go to table cape (drive threw Wynyard) , big arse lighthouse up there, over looks most of the north coast of tassie, you can see for prob about 100-150km's on a clear day.

plenty of drugs in burnie, oh and cheap sluts if either of those are your thing lol.

There is a strip club only 1 block from me apparently.

Keep us informed on the Corolla tour, because it would be a shame to totaly miss it.

will do man, I'll be sticking a post up asking places to go and roads to drive... a well educated tour guide would be awesome too.

currently there is a 4agze holden nova, a 4ag sprinter, a blacktop20v sprinter and a 4ac ae71. plus a couple of possibles
