A mere seven weeks until we're on the beautiful island again. Colleagues, acquaintances and sources are beginning to tire of this being mentioned.

However: an operative did share her impressions of island life after returning from a week of bliss. In a word, costly.

The new seafood restaurant by Aristos is, it seems, pricey. Our operative says $43 for half a crayfish with salad; $16 for a smallish serve of fish and chips; the same for a portion of squid and chips.

We wonder if Aristos has kept those buzzing devices that go bananas when your order is ready.

"Aristos in Bunbury is much cheaper," our operative said. She ate in while on Rottnest, and had a $9 cray when she got back to the mainland.
