Re: THANK YOU AUSTRALIA
I have nothing to say thank you for. If it wasn't for Australia, I could still be living with my family in 5 years

Re: THANK YOU AUSTRALIA
I frequent both the Australian and Middle East sections of this forum. What I find strange is that The british seem to hate Australia, yet love Dubai. They complain about racism in Australia, yet they come here in droves and get themselves a poor little servant from the sub-continent to treat like sh*t. The price of property here is extortionate, yet the company pays for it, so therefore it's acceptable and makes them feel very self-important. They're being made redundant in droves, yet they're fighting tooth and nail to stay here. They love the weather because the sun shines all the time (through a thick cloud of dust and pollution). But hey, the shopping malls are better than Australia and after all that's all that counts isn't it.
Australia has so much to offer for quality of life and yet people constantly feel the need to whine about it.

But then - I'm having another bloody awesome day threads would be kinda boring after a time. So I just settle on being smugly happy here instead.

Re: THANK YOU AUSTRALIA
This thread is not intended for airing any controversy or off-loading steam, you have numerous other threads for doing so.
This thread is just to say THANK YOU AUSTRALIA, if you have a reason to or just feel like it.

Re: THANK YOU AUSTRALIA
Thank you Australia for taking my drivers licence away from me and issuing me with all those speeding and parking fines. 
Thank you Australia for regulating everything that makes my day to day life so much easier...
Thank you Australia for the 33% luxury car tax.

Is that luxury car a Porsche, BMW or Ferrari? 33% tax? Too bad, should've been 133%. You got speeding ticket as well? What a surprize! Too much regulation? Who cares, you are good at breaking them anyways.

Thank-you Australia for supplying me with endless examples of the kind of lugubrious whinge-bags who made blighty such a tedious place to live.

Re: THANK YOU AUSTRALIA
Here's something to brighten your otherwise clearly miserable existance, something you can be truely thankful to Australia for: A place to temporarily park your sorry arse. Might not seem like much but imagine life without such a service and you will quickly see its inestimable value, at least until you pop your clogs.
