    Had my tourist visa for Australia approved. Do I need to print it out and take it to the airport or will they have it recorded electronically?

    Should be ok electronically but I would take a print out as back up. Airport systems have been known to fail.

    Got 5 different appointments over next 2 weeks.
    Bowel cancer check, throat cancer check, heart check, diabetes review and eye injection.
    Currently on so many tablets I’m like a walking pharmacy.

    Agree with that. Ran to the pub to get out the rain and I nearly keeled over. Spent 20mins hanging onto the back of a chair trying to get my heart rate down.

    Enjoy mate, did the same thing in 2010 and was a great experience. My visa didn't get checked once when I was there.

    If you're going over now I'd suggest getting straight up to Darwin. Weather is perfect, loads of work.

    Cheers man, going over at the end of the month via Singapore. I'm flying to Melbourne so probably won't get up to Darwin.

    Melbourne is brilliant mate. I lived in St Kilda and Prahran for close to a year. Used to watch the games in Pint on Punt, not sure if that's even there anymore. Chapel Street is a great place as well, loads of good pubs.

    One question.
    Would it be better to take all my meds (20 tablets a day) in my checked luggage or hand luggage.

    Hand luggage. If it has prescription sticker on it that would be better.

    That way if you lose your bags you’re also not * without it.
