Thanks Geoff ... yes, a very timely warning to be careful along the Qld East coast, for those nasty stingers!!
Up our way we dont pop our toes into the water from about early MAy to end of October depending on the amount of jellyfish around.
A girl got bitten recently by a box jelly (i Think) in some freshwater!! A cause to worry - she was very crook, and went into cardiac arrest, but is now luckily stable.
Be aware of first aid, as Geoff says.
