For Our Aussie Mates

[Ganmain Tony]

I think you need to come back for another visit Jiff.

Sure the nights are cold (for Australia, not Canada). But the days have been absolutely beautiful. Sunny and not a cloud in the sky.

The days we have been getting rain are actually quite mild and the rain has been coming at exactly the right time and in the right amounts. Looks like being one of those georgeous spring's we get in normal years this year.

The Riverina turns into Gods country from September to November. Will post some photo's if it does.

Damned right I need to get back there, Tony! It's been three years now, too bloody long! A lot of water under the bridge since then, so we'll see what happens. I've been a busy boy, but I miss you lot and your magnificent land!

Sex Party promises 'real action' for Australians


Sex Party promises real action& for Australians – Sex Party leader Fiona Patten (left) speaks to Zahra Stardust -- a candidate in the 2009 federal elections …

MELBOURNE (AFP) – The Australian Sex Party on Tuesday promised to spice up campaigning for next month's elections with a manifesto "unlike Australia had ever seen before".

Party chief Fiona Patten launched a risque national campaign at a Melbourne bar, saying her policies "would make (opposition Leader) Tony Abbott's hair stand on end and would turn (Prime Minister) Julia Gillard's hair grey". prospective

"We've always been forward and we actually enjoy real action," Patten said, mocking Gillard and Abbott's "Moving Australia Forward" and "Stand Up For Real Action" slogans.

The party's policies include legalising euthanasia, decriminalising all drugs for personal use, and watering down strict anti-pornography laws.

Although sure to attract criticism from church groups and other conservative elements in society, Patten said it was time an Australian political party pushed the boundaries.

Patten said personal freedom issues affect people's lives more often than tax or immigration, and wanted to break down "nanny state" policies that she said had been built up over several decades by the major parties.

While the party will struggle for mainstream support, Patten remained confident of at least one Sex Party candidate being elected to the country's Senate.

"In the privacy of the polling booth, anything could happen," she said.

The Sex Party is running a candidate against Abbott in his Sydney electorate, a comedian who has offered to doorknock voters wearing a "mankini" -- a type of bikini designed for men.
