You know you're an Australian when......

[Farkinott, RN]

You know you're in an Australian summer when.....

* The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

* Hot water now comes out of both taps.

* You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

* The temperature drops below 35 degrees and you feel a little chilly.

* You discover that in February it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.

* You develop a fear of metal car door handles.

* You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 06:30am.

* Your biggest bicycle-accident fear is, "What if I get knocked out and

end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

* Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from

laying hard-boiled eggs.

* The cows are giving evaporated milk.

* The trees are whistling for the dogs.

One of my all time favourite cartoons was a picture of an Aussie in slouch hat and shorts leaning on a post in the middle of what is obviously hell saying to the devil "You think this is hot??? You should have been in The Alice last year!!!"
