Ward,

The strange thing people all over the world want come to Oz to see the dangerous wildlife and a few never make it home.

Most die from drownings or from medical conditions not the wildlife.

BTW, Neighors and Kylie are more popular in the UK than Oz.

The older UK generation all grew up with them but the real favourite was skippy.

I beleive Dave is busy training the next skippy.

Bloody Australians!

It must be a terrible mind-fuck to live on an island which basically is
a desert, having the 10 most poisonous snakes of the world in your backyard, flies, kangaroos, salt water crocs, sharks on your beaches
and only "Neighbours" and Kylie Minogue as entertainment ...

BTW, ABBA has split a short while ago.

While much of Australia is a desert, the chunk that is not is considerably larger than Belgium, and a population only twice Belgium's to fill it.

Only two in my backyard and the dog fixed them.

flies, kangaroos, salt water crocs,

Crocs live towards the north of Australia - the larger proportion of the human population towards the south,

sharks on your beaches

Sharks get far less people than the motor vehicles, it is safer swimming in the warm sea than driving on the roads.

Kylie moved to UK years ago, they have other brainless bimbos now.

BTW, ABBA has split a short while ago.

ACDC are still around.
