Avoid jet lag by simply taking an earlier flight, thus arriving fully refreshed and on time

get a book of abreviations

your going to need it,
even offical goverment forms etc are abreviated and sometimes its not clear as to what its means

ie ATO aussie tax office TFN tax file number


adverts like --- rego due ! change your CTP to QBE

wtf??? this was on the radio

in english

is your registration due ( yearly car tax ) change your Compuslary Third Party Insurance to QBE ( A Queensland Insurance company )

This abreviating of things is probably the only thing i`ve stuggled with

Old phone directories make ideal personal address books.
Simply cross out the names and addresses of the people you don't know

Prepare yourself and your kids for Aussie Radio.

Between songs talk about how you can cure haemorrhoids and penile disfunction. Throw in a few swear words at regular intervals.
