Aussies are very laid back and laconic New Zealanders spend to much time with their sheep. And we don't talk like them.
Speaking of the Aussie humor elsewhere. Two fathers days ago, one of my sons bought me a Blow up Sheep.
He said "Here dad, you might like this, her name is Baaarbra., but i didn't know what size Gum Boots you wear"
Even dads are not safe from teasing. :)

LOL, even I have to admit some of the farmers are a bit weird... o_O

New Zealanders are sort of quasi Aussies a lot of them come here to work, well not here in Tasmania but on the Mainland mostly Sydney I think. Also I did here they were going to boot a lot of them out fro freeloading .

You mean boot the New Zealanders working in AUS out? I think if I remember, there was a period where the rights of NZers that were working in AUS were to change, thus resulting in them moving back to NZ. Rights as in i think some sort of health care or insurance type thing that you have a right to get when working there legally from NZ, you must be a NZ citizen for these to apply, since we're so close, in many ways, work, trade, our actual distance between each other etc.

Australia has a lot of crocodiles .

From Wiki.
Saltwater crocodile
The saltwater crocodile, also known as the estuarine crocodile, Indo-Pacific crocodile, marine crocodile, sea crocodile or informally as Salty, is the largest of all living reptiles, as well as the largest riparian predator in the world. Males of this species can reach sizes up to 6.30 m and possibly up to 7.0 m in length. However, an adult male saltwater crocodile rarely reaches or exceeds a size of 6 m weighing 1,000 to 1,200 kg. Females are much smaller and often do not surpass 3 m.
This one is called Brutus, he is missing an arm.

Here are some happy snaps of the opposite to Augusts garden of Eden. I love the Northern Territory and Northern WA with a passion. It is very different to Augusts world, but has a beauty all of its own.
