Ipom, took me slightly longer than it should have to "get it" but this fellow here is like an, net pommy version of Barry Humphreys.... Pure entertainment with a satirical undertone.
I guess not everyone enjoys Dame Edna either.

4 Aussie kids, one Aussie house, one Aussie holiday home, and a Aussie missus.... oh plus one Aussie car, Suggests to me there is nothing wannabe about my circumstances. (edit dammit forgot the fairly substantial Aussie super as well)
Do you mean the traffic congestion or the outcry about the Taxi Driver ?

Big cities are the same the world over. Personally I like the vibe of Melbourne, It's big enough to come with some of the warts but not quite as many as most Metropolis of the same size.
Poor guy was in the wrong place at the wrong time..... Better in my book than being in the wrong place all of the time.

First week I moved to a burb in Perth a 17year old kid hung himself in the house opposite us ( no I did know him , so no blame on me) , was informed by police they deal with this all the time , WA has big problems with this
