Wow thanks Dave, I was originally going to Tassie but the expense of getting the bus there stopped me, 45% off sounds just nice.

we intend to go over in winter one year just to see the snow on cradle mountain, absolutely beautifull I would imagine, it's not a cheap trip but if it was spread over say 6 months then the cost wouldnt be too bad, but what ever you do grab a cabin those chairs are ludicrously uncomfortable
