I’m guessing short for Eskimo. Likely and Igloo style cooler.
Eskimo cooler - in this case full of beer (VB = Victoria bitter I assume)
Remember that they’re in Australia, though, on the other side of the globe. The hole is above their heads. :eek:
they had to increase the fee.
baby eating dingos are a huge issue that needs to be accommodated.
si_blakely did say the rangers weren’t going to stand for it.
Are they a feature or a bug?
I still can’t believe the last Australian Prime Minister got elected on that platform.
Since we’re all learning about language here, I feel like I should point out to the OP that in America “the family jewels” usually refer to a man’s genitals 
Yeah, and selling the rest of the guy normally fetches a higher price.
I share your pain, Kam, I got sticker shock the first time I went camping here in California - $28/night for an unpowered tent site?! In the off-season! Around here, on national forest land, you can practice what they call “dispersed” camping for free, which is usually no amenities at all, or the state parks designate some places as “environmental” campsites (as opposed to…?) which you usually have to hike in to, which do have pit dunnies and sometimes a table or two.

You do realise that the flush toilet and gas BBQ are linked via a methane generator, don’t you 
It was a case of the baby-eating dingos voting for the only person to make them look better in comparison.
I guessed right on the Eskimo cooler but I was really hoping it was full of Vodka Bonics.
Okay folks, why am I the only person who noticed that this is crazy?
Camping at Christmas time? With kids? You’ll frickin’ freeze to death!!!
The simple fact is that Christmas falls in the dead of winter. Duh!!
Everybody knows Christmas time: Frosty the snowman, dashing through the snow on one-horse open sleighs, icicles dripping off the roof, laying on your back and swiping your arms to make snow angels, catching snowflakes on your tongue, drinking hot cider to keep warm, etc, etc etc.
The OP wants to go camping, but he is so ignorant of the seasons that he hasn’t bothered to ask how he will use his “dunny”* without freezing his ass** off in December.
I’ve heard the same ignorance from other Aussies, too…They just don’t understand how God made the seasons.
But sometimes, I figure that I shouldn’t come down too hard on the poor blokes…Maybe it’s not their fault–they’ve just been hypnotized by watching the water swirl down the drain in the wrong direction, so now they can’t think straight.
*I like this word!
**yes, I said “ass”…not “arse”. There are rules, ya know. 
Oh, there’s one more word that only exists in Aussie-land:
At the zoo, just past the aquarium, there’s a sign pointing to the “Platypussary”. Honest.
Insert Australian stereotype or slang word here.
Set up Crocodile Dundee joke for follow up post.
Alright, alright, I see you’ve played knifey-spoony before.
We tried Romper Stomper jokes but they didn’t go over well.
Kambuckta, I totally agree with you.
The whole idea of camping in national parks is (was) that you’re able to enjoy the rugged beauty of the land while roughing it, on the cheap. But who want’s fork out several hundred bucks to rough it!?
That’s bullshit. (Pigshit, even.)
My mum used to pile all us kids into our third-hand station wagon and take us camping in national parks all over the country because it was an affordable adventure for us. Sometimes the campgrounds didn’t even have the luxury of a pit loo. It was BYO TP and shovel. But it was cheap as chips. (And there’s something else that has risen in price significantly!)
Check my geography here, but isn’t Australia like, 98% “rugged beauty of the land”?
That’s right.
It’s nothing but pit dunnies as far as the eye can see.
