You complain to a colleague about how much of a pain Visio is and to your amazement she tells you how much she loves it!

....especially when he gives her shoulders a good going over!

What does Visio have to do with AU?
I use it - I get by with it!

I've seen people help out with colleagues by giving them a quick massage!

Cheers

When it's the first week of August and another winter has rolled by in rapid time. And you know some of the flowers will bud in days.
And you camp in the snow at the snowline, and have skis sticking out of the ground yet can see over snowgums to the lower slopes with no snow....

when you have long forgotten the UK and can't really remember life there at all - just through the prism of distant memories!
When you know parts of the AU backcountry like the back of your hand..

Cheers

When, in our corner of woop woop at least, the summer sun makes the lawn go brown, and just as it is recovering by winter the frosts hit and the lawn goes brown again. That irrigation system and $700+ summer water bill was a great investment

Not a lot other than a random experience in Australia. It certainly made us all laugh out loud. Could easily have been a line out of The Office.

Had something like that where many of the plants I introduced and carefully cultivated of last summer got wiped out by the frosts. Given up on the grass - the only things that seem to grow well on the lawn are the weeds. Going to replace it all with wood chippings in the spring..

...some people believe Coleslaw was invented by Coles.

... people still sit in their garage, in the middle of winter, with the door up, recreationally.

...people are incapable of taking shopping bags with them when visiting supermarkets

A very strong indicator they will be bogans.

Where does this occur?

It's the beginning of August and the shorts are out.

I have the shorts on today. The weather, despite a little windy is lovely and warm.

Even more bizarre. Putting the skis on the roof racks wearing shorts and a t-shirt. That soon changes when you get to Cooma.

Anywhere bogans have a house with a garage.

The thing that surprised me was they still did it in the winter.

I need to venture further a field.

Not many garages in my neighborhood. However I have one and so does the guy opposite on the side street. On the odd occassion we find ourselves in the garage with the doors open chatting away to each other while we both are sorting (finding) garden equipment.

I must get a chair for the garage and do a bit of sitting. I feel like I am missing out.
