Looking for a lift from wellington to Napier (or any east coast)

Hi there ,

Myself and my girlfriend will be arriving in wellington on the 27th of Feb and staying until the 1st of march.

We would like to visit Napier but do not have a car. Rather than paying for a bus we would be willing to help you out with petrol money.

Let me know if there is anyone out there interested. Otherwise it's a long and Boeing bus ride for us :(

Thanks

Working in Darwin in May

Hey Guys,

I'm arriving in Darwin on 1st May 2013 and was hoping to get a couple of weeks of work asap. However I got in contact with a local recruitment company for seasonal work (fruit/flower picking etc) and he told me there was little available, and of that little it tended to be given to the locals.

Can anyone confirm whether or not this is the case? Furthermore, is it even possible to get this kind of work for such short periods? And if not, what's the minimum? Final question, on arrival I thought I would check out the local recruitment companies, and then visit a few hostels for advertisements. Other than chatting to fellow backpackers and locals to see if they know anything, is there anything else I should be doing/considering?

Thanks so much for any help.

Rainy season (March) in Fraser Island and Brisbane

Hello.
I am going to visit Fraser island and Brisbane in March the 6th to 12th, which is the rainy season.
I am going there with my parents (about 65 years olds).

But I don't know how the weather will be like, is it all day long raining there in rainy season? Or it rains just for 1 or 2 hours a day?
And is it easy to book a tour to fraser island just 2 days before the tour start (I go there from brisbane)?
In that case, I can check the weather and decide 2 days before we go there.
Or should I book the tour many days before?

Thank you very much :)
