OK, so last time I lied...
but this time i mean it. Time to start posting again from this increasingly wierd country (assuming i can work out how to post via email).
First up - water. There's tons of it here. It pisses down regularly. Sydney has more rainfall than London. Ignore any Australian who tells you there's a drought - there's just a lack of brainpower.

AND WE'RE BACK (for a while at least)
I thought it's about time I had another stab at this blogging malarky, especially as the natives downunder have provided a few crumbs which I hope may enlighten and/or amuse my reader, assuming (s)he is still alive of course.
I'll scribble a few notes tomorrow and update the sidebars etc over time (basically once i can remember how you do that) but in the meantime would any non-australians care to take a stab at defining the following common australian words...
rort
stoush
They crop up all the time down here and I had never heard of either of them before.
