For Raft Away River, ask this clown. He seems to have everything:

That guy says that he'll sell all his stuff if you buy it as a job lot - but he won't split it up and sell separately.

What a clown.

hey, I just saw that you got fillings. This may sound out of place but I'm in Ireland now but will be down under in a few weeks. I procrastinated on some dental work hoping vaguely that it would be cheaper in oz. fillings here are roughly A$80 a go. are they cheaper down there? Please excuse me but I thought no harm asking!

Hey Mick,
The price varies depending on who you see, and how many surfaces need filling, and whether you go for the metallic (dark grey) or porcelain (white) filling, but I paid between A$120 and A$140 for each filling.

This was for metallic/amalgam, which is cheaper, and was $120 for two surfaces, and $140 for three. If you have health insurance, you can get about $50 back, and you could probably find a cheaper dentist than the one I went to, but without insurance, I'd say you're better off getting it done there in Ireland.

Hope this helps, and enjoy having the fillings done - I know I did.
