Lol the reason why Aussies and Kiwis jump the ditch so often is because it is so close and the flights are cheap. Oh and to all Aussies the All Blacks are gonna win the World Cup this year. :wink:

Oh please. That's lame. How many times has the Aussie's beaten the All Blacks in the past year? I don't know, but meh.

I hope France actually wins for that..

ROFL. Holy crap.. Where did you get that from? Funnel Web Spiders... How exactly did you even hear of them?

Every so often there's a show on TV that shows the funnel web spiders, and since it's tv, they make them out to be practicly an army of spiders that has declared war on all of humanity in Australia, and people have no hope of beating them back, because they're invincible, and dogs smaller than a sheep routinely get caught in the webs and have their insides drained entirely by the massive creatures, that are at LEAST the size of small rats.

That is hilarious, unless of course your being serious, in which case it's kind of sad

People who know me know I'm ALWAYS serious. Even when I'm exageratting. Greatly.

Aussies are great! When I was backpacking in Europe, the coolest people to hang out with were the Aussies. Never met one abroad, or ever really, that wasn't cool.

Yeah the mountains are... wait, did you say mountains?

Oh yeah you're from Ontario, carry on.

I was pretty confused when we went to the park to use the public BBQs. "What, this frying pan? I thought we were going to BBQ."

Silly canuck, I thought it would have a flame and a grill.

Thank goodness for the Australians who vacation in Hawaii or else I wouldn't be able to speak English to anyone while I was there in June.

Australians are the coolest people to hang out with, they get the jokes, they know the places and the are relaxed and more open then any Americans, basically the best chaps. Did I mention they have the best accent?

Thanks guys. We are awesome!

And we have no earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanos or anything like that. No seismic activities at all.

And the animals are a bit overrated. I have been living here for 5 years and I haven't met a single dangerous animal

I only saw snakes and the like when I was a young child, I see spiders frequently and I've seen a shark once when sailing. Chances are you will only see them if you go to smaller or more rural towns, except aquatic things that want to kill you, I think they are pretty much everywhere :lol:

Posted: **Thu Aug 30, 2007 2:24 pm**

When I think of Australia I think of cute surfers, water, the bush, kangaroos and joey's, crocodile hunter ect.. Those are mostly what sticks in my head

How the hell did he get a Huntsman in his car? They usually don't enter anything that hasn't been sitting there for a few years.

I do agree though, they are scary. Especially when you get the ones 2/3 the size of your hand

Huntsman go everywhere! I see them in the car all the time. And how can you be scared of them? They won't attack you. I always feel sorry for them when someone kills them cause they think they're poisonous. Poor spider. Hunstman are really cool though :]

you can be shit scared off them if your from Britain and you have never heard of them before. my brother only went out there because one of our mates went a couple of years earlier with his missus(he has split up since), he now lives in Perth with his wife.

If you live in a large city then firestorm is not a problem at all. Unlike hurricanes.
