We can get them genetically modified especially for life in Oz.

Any suggestions on modifications?

Suggest modification to enable greater heat tolerance. This would at least increase my chances of not dying of hypothermia from the airconditioning he's threatening to install in every room!

Aus modifications -actually I have a great UK one so this is just a whinge

- ability to hand over BBQ tools to female
- ability to understand folding washing off washing line makes for easier job later
- ability to understand spiders, even the weeny ones bother me! But do not tease me just remove and destroy
- gardening is not exciting for me! Not the length of grass, size of bushes or leaves on lawn
- Cars! turn it on it goes? What more to know? For my sins my lovey hubby now sells cars and knows even more than a man should!

but then again I could have this whinge in the UK!

Cheers

How do you know that the word of warning is regarding the subject of expats, and not a word of warning to the husbands who are members of expats? It could be read either way.

PS I agree it is a very slow day!

What's coming soon? The visa? The lawsuit? The kangaroo lover? The Tooheys? The rainy season? The change in points that gives husbands an extra 10?

Bring it on.

Whoops! Good point. "Hoisted by my own petard." *

I knew I shouldn't have posted it, but sometimes irritation wins out over good sense.
