Since moving here 6 months ago we occassionally have that '' only in Australia'' moment - I'm sure there are many to add to the list.

1. Tonight the KFC ran out of chicken !!!!!

2. There is an ad on the radio for a gents outfitters which closes with the strapline '' Why are we so popular ? Because we wont send you out looking like a total dick head !''

3. Every job done by workmen '' will be al'right mate'' even when it obviously wont.

Feel free to add your '' only in Australia'' moments

Especially the last few lines which are along the lines of
"Go from a o to a AHHH"
Then he says: "I feel like a man now!" Oh really? Nasal spray has a sexual preference changing side affect?

I love the prime time radio ads, "do you suffer from premature ejaculation?".

Another radio one on 96fm when the newscaster made a mess of reading the news & she just said "well I screwed that up". Now, that wouldn't happen on the beeb!

TV, when you have a set of adverts sometimes, then you go back to the program which runs for a minute or two & it's straight into the closing credits.

I'm sure I'll think of more...........

A dogs life

On the same theme, programmes that merge into ads which are fronted by the same presenters that are on the programme, and then it disolves back into the programme again.

Its illegal in the UK, but its obviously allowed here. Just watch Better Homes and Gardens any Friday night and try and find the join between where the ads start and where the programme ends. One minute they are telling what brand of wood preservative to use (I think that was part of the programme) the next they are telling you the best paint to buy (I think that was an advert)

You must be the unluckiest person in the world. Are you in the Guinesss Book of Records yet ? It should be worth a try for it

Only in Australia ? We have "Level Two" drought restrictions, and our dams are full at 100% capacity

The weather presenters say: "Well thankfully rain is forecast all week"

It's considered acceptable for tough guys to drink light beer
