Australia Day - 2021
TIPS TO SURVIVING AUSTRALIA (Copied from a Facebook post that I found)
- Don't ever put your hand down a hole for any reason - WHATSOEVER.
- The beer is stronger than you think, regardless of how strong you think it is.
- Always carry a stick.
- Air-conditioning is imperative.
- Do not attempt to use Australian slang unless you are a trained linguist and extremely good in a fist fight.
- Wear thick socks.
- Take good maps.
- Stopping to ask directions only works when there are people nearby.
- If you leave the urban areas, carry several litres of water with you at all times, or you will die. And don't forget a stick.
- Even in the most embellished stories told by Australians, there is always a core of truth that it is unwise to ignore.
HOW TO IDENTIFY AUSTRALIANS
- They pronounce Melbourne as "Mel-bin".
- They think it makes perfect sense to decorate highways with large fibreglass bananas, prawns and sheep.
- They think "Woolloomooloo" is a perfectly reasonable name for a place, that "Wagga Wagga" can be abbreviated to "Wagga", but "Woy Woy" can't be called "Woy".
- Their hamburgers will contain beetroot. Apparently it's a must-have. How else do you get a stain on your shirt?
- They don't think it's summer until the steering wheel is too hot to handle.
- They believe that all train timetables are works of fiction.
- And they all carry a stick.
- This is our Great Southern Land.
- Walk alone, like a primitive man and make it work.
