Overall, if I was going to get seriously ill I'd do it in Brisbane or
Sydney - if I was going to die I'd do it in the Southern Alps in NZ.
How much and what is "23 GBP."?
(Notice I refrained from saying "In real, money")
Something like $45 USD.
About that.
And GBP is something one writes if one is bereft of a 'pound sign' on one's
poxy Austalian-version keyboard.
It's the internationaly accepted code for 'Great British Pounds.'

"Great British Pounds"!

sounds like a mild expletive dating from the late Victorian era, the
kind that would be employed if you bark a shin on an ottoman, or trip
over a sleeping domestic animal or are aggravated by an elderly maiden
aunt...
