RainJust when you think it couldnt get any wetter, the floods here on Nthn NSW, have subsided, and the smell of rotting fish has cleared the town after the massive fishkill, the river has been closed to fishing for at least 2 - 6 months to allow stocks to replenish.
Now it's rained constant again for last 3 days, and they reckon it's here for at least another 5 days... whoopee more floods and more dead fish  , am I ever gonna get me boat in the water this Summer

Don't laugh too much mate - I'm seriously thinking of a move down under if I can persuade mrs ravey.
Us qualified professional types are apparently much in demand in Oz or NZ. Practically begging us to come they are.

Sydney - Gay and Lesbian capital of the planet, most expensive homes in Oz, Cronulla race riots, humid and a football team that is cringeworthy in its "only cheer when they're winning" attitude. Think they are the centre of the universe. Very average beer - Less time spent think on this the better - <shudders>
Canberra - Nations Capital - Man made city, with a man made lake, in the middle of nowhere. Full of politicians and a half decent Rugby side. No football team. Does have fireworks tho - Avoid - careful map reading should ensure you never enter here
Melbourne - Sporting capital of Australia. Cultural capital of Australia. Food and Fashion capital too! This place has EVERYTHING including 4 seasons in 1 day. The best football team, best Rugby League team, best Cricket team. Closest thing to Yorkshire (spirit and mentality wise) in the southern hemisphere. Best restaurants. Has a Leeds Supporters Club here. Best beer. Women are women (not in Sydney they may not be as first thought). Possibly the equal of Gods County!
Brisbane - Literally behind the times. They refuse daylight saving as the cows wont know when to milk and all the extra sun will fade the curtains (Im serious here). Very Rugby League here, a football team with Dutch heritage and the worst kit imaginable (orange and Maroon). Very poor beer which they spell as XXXX. Do have lovely beaches and the climate is to die for, tho in 10 years time Japanese will be the official language. PS. The safari suit is still a valid piece of kit for a good Friday nite out - Ensure your lobotomy is complete before arriving
Perth - The "furtherest city from anywhere". So far its 3 hours behind the rest of Oz. Are only just trialling daylight savings this year!!! and shops dont open on a Sunday. Focus is on AFL (Aussie Rules) which means they play football for 120 mins and then spend 7 nites on the eccies, pills, bourbons and the like. Greatest player out of there is a drug f*ck. Beer is quite good - their football team is now shite (was once good) but all their fans are aged over 40 and ring cowbells at home games and wear morris dancing/octoberfest hats on away games which they attend with their wives. Is a booming city based on the resources boom and soon houses will cost more than Sydney. Mrs 30Mill comes from there so not too bad a spot - Wind your clock back 3 hours and your calendar 20 years
Adelaide - Highest percentage of serial killers in the world, tho Im convinced that most normal folk would try to kill themsleves rather than stay there. They have a tram systems for the city which a massive 2 stops. Called the city of churches and is quiest as one from about 6:30pm each and every nite. Has a football team called the Reds - enuff said. If it wasnt for Hobart would be the inbred capital of oz. Their water is browner and has more flavour than their beer. State dish is a pie floater so disable gag reflex upon entering state. Apart from Adelaide, their is nothing else in the state of South Australia - true, they even have Copper Pedy where they dig holes in the ground and live in them - Go here if you want your body to end up in a barrel
Hobart - Capital of our "map of tassie". has excellent beer, which is needed as there is nothing else to do. No football, rugby, league or AFL. Have produced two cricketers of note. One is reknowned for most cans ever drunk on a Aus to UK flight (David Boon) and the other is a wifebeating drunken punter (allegedly) current captain who had to move to NSW to get into the Oz team. Outside of Hobart the natural ferocious enemy is not the Tassie Devel but the Tassie Inbred, noticeable by have two heads on the one set of shoulders - Avoid
Darwin - Deliverance - Australian style. Place has 2 rain forecasts. HOT and HOTnWET. There is no sport, nothing to see and it rains very hard for 6 months of the year. Do they care? No. Cos they are pissed out of their minds. Darwin has the biggest beer drunk / population ratio anywhere in the world. Convinced they only outlawed "shooting abo's" as a sport in the last 10 years. Go here to die
In a nutshell, allow me to quote from one of our football chants
Oh Melbourne is
So Wonderful
Oh Melbourne is so wonderful
Its full of tits, fanny and football
Oh Melbourne is so wonderful

Actually you may all think 30mill is joking, but that about sums up pretty precisely the Major cities in Oz, Except for Brisbane of course..
Though I do think he was a tad to nice about Sydney.
And why any bugger wants to live in a capital city is beyond me, get yoursen to North Coast of NSW, the True gods country in OZ..

Without a doubt the post of the week. 
I was already leaning towards Melbourne (named after the now defunct Leeds Brewery ) and that may have clinched it. Brisbane might be fun for a visit though!
Now I just have to persuade mrs ravey...
