We have the best farmers in the world
We have pisspoor soil low rainfall Not subsidised to the hilt like the land of free enterprise (Never quite got how that works ) or Europe But still we produce enough to feed us and much of the world
And bring in some valuable export dollars

If some one puts up a topic and I know its truth and fact I will agree with them, its pointless disagreeing there happy2 when you are just that a farmer and know what you said is the truth and even me a city boy does too..

How about its politicians? a 45 degree day and you need to do a lot of things out in the heat.... Paying 2-3 times more for things than any nation does, having the worlds slowest internet speeds in the English speaking world, waiting forever for a parcel to come from the other side of the country, but one arrives in speedy time from overseas, Trying to Find Made in Australia, loosing jobs left right and center due to costs, having no leadership anywhere at all 3 levels of government..... All you mentioned was geographical features every nation has those.....

WOW Phoebe
I actually thought this was a post about what we LOVE about Australia. I know there are many for and against but this was just a few of the things I love.
I think I will start a new thread about what we don't Like about Australia LOL

Definitely the freedom of speech, I think compared to some other countries we are pretty laid back :)

I think both you and Andyrew are a little correct with your comments, or freedom of speech, as you put it. But with regards to sensitive topics such as race, sex, and religion, most of society in this country choose discretion when it comes to discussing these topics, if at all. I do believe this plays a big part in keeping the peace .

You gotta love the freeways.

And the so called speed cameras that are supposed to safe lives with statistics to prove, yet initiatives to improve safety have been slow cumming.

Besides these, you gotta love these...Bunker Bay

Moore River, where the river meets the ocean. It sure beats Swanbourne...lol...

You gotta love the Eastern Freeway..... and to think those progressive vics stopped the extension,... they must love that ... and Punt Rd that crosses it.. from that point to swan street once it took me nearly 2 hours.... ... FFS a person could fly to sydney and be getting head at a local parlor in that time.. ;)
