Re: How "Australian" do you feel.

I would love to hear rain right now. Although I did hear it for about 2 minutes just before Christmas ;).

Re: Old member, but back here after years away

I find it to be OK, never been crazy about the place but don't hate it either. I appreciate the good things about Adelaide but see the problems as well. Overall, I have a good standard of living and...

Re: Goodbye Friends Reunited...

I used it in the early days and reconnected with an old school friend who had also moved to Australia.
I haven't thought about it at all in years and didn't realise it was still around.

Re: I LOVE Australia but my husband HATES it.

When you made the decision to move to Australia, were you both enthusiastic about it or did your hubby agree to it because it was your dream? Just curious because if it was the latter, then maybe...

Re: Australia is too bloody far away....from everything

I just got back to SA after a lovely Christmas in England, to be confronted with 40 + temperatures and an out of control bushfire burning north east of the city. Welcome home from Adelaide...

Re: The end of the Australian upward inflection ?

Yes I've noticed the Americanisation of their speech (I think it's called 'Valley Girl' speak).
