The flies - really bad this year
Mosquitos
The drought and all that implies
No history
The standard of education (bone of contention I know but one I am convinced of)
The rising cost of houses
The flies
The poor range of goods in the supermarkets
The heat
The political correctness
Did I mention the flies?

It's full of English people 


Maybe I should say that is bad cause it's full of Aussies
does that help?!
They like the names Sheila and Bruce
No cheap flights to Amsterdam/Paris
Thats the biggest negative in my opinion.

A machine that can convert flat coke into guiness is surely a good investment.

But Guiness is rubbish wherever it's found.
Murphey's was a much better stout and Coopers is a much better one here.

Not as stupid as the £2 coin. What's the point of having a coin that is twice the weight and twice the size when it is only twice the value of another coin. You may as well have two £1 coins. At least the $2 coin reduces the strain on your pocket.
I know that makes the 10c and 20c coins stupid but we inherited them from the Brits.
Can you tell that I was a fan of the 20p coin?

But hey, what about those bank notes? Why not different sizes? Didn't ANYONE think of the visually impared?!
And bank charges eh? Bastards.
And beaches? Whoever thought a beach was a good idea?
Surf Patrols? They are rubbish, just stay out of there and leave the idiot swimmers to their own devices. Go the shark I say.
It makes me seeeeeeth ... almost.

Hello - - Guinness is so good for you it used to be on prescription in the UK until about 15 years ago, not Murphy's or Cooper's, but Guinness. Maybe the young Arthur ladd did a secret deal with Lloyd George, who knows.
How the pensioners of today suffer.
Negatives about Oz are, the education, the proximity to Europe, Castlemaine XXXX, Nicole Kidman, Spiders, drought, house prices, cost of living, shite shops, no history and most importantly of all 'the boomerang doesn't always come back!'
Good Luck,
Croc

The amount of time one has to wait at traffic lights
Wrong Way Go Back signs
The amount of profanities spoken................by ladies!
The way a kangaroo lies on the ground after being clobbered by a car
The way everyone says 'See you later' at the end of every interaction - especially shops - when you (and they) know full well you will not see them at all

4. of course the uk system of shopkeeping is so much better, no eye contact, no dialogue, no cash interaction. You hand money to them in the hand they place change on the counter !
