There are things to love about Australia? If it's that good why were convicts sent there?

Its probably the convicts that loved it - Compared to Newgate prison or the noose it must have been paradise

I went night swimming in Bateman's Bay when i was living out there.

Slept on the beach.

We woke up next morning to box jellyfish in the surf.  We think.  they might not have been.  

MAJOR bullet dodged there i think.

Q: How can you tell an Australian from a New Zealander?

A: An Australian has a chip on both shoulders.

Of course Australians are special...they were chosen by the very finest English judges.

It is sadly true that Nicole Kidman is sex on legs until she speaks in her own accent.
