Default Whinging Aussies.

Has anybody else noticed that the general conversation is OZ at the moment is about as cheerfull as a bunch of old ladies on pension day.

Moaning about healthcare, increasing costs, collapsing medicare, Health insurance rip offs.

Moans about food prices, low wages and ever increasing Taxes.

Complaints about how anybody is affording to get on the housing ladder.

And moaning about the rain rain and more rain we have had the last two months.

Asked a friend this morning how she was and got a sorry tale of how they could not afford the mortage on husbands wage of $460 a week, now selling the house.

I am scared to ask anybody how they are anymore, pity those poor kids in the Supermarket, "How are you today", they must get a right earfull.

Cant wait till the Budget next week, can you imagine that now we have the war to pay off. Dont ask how anybody is next Wednesday.
