Baby steps

There are two things that appear to be relatively new concepts over here.

They are household recycling and eating 5 serves of fruit and veg a day.

Big media campaigns about both, it really astounded us.

Also, they only got PINs on every day bank cards last year and it caused a right kerfuffle. I have always had a PIN on my cards, so I don't even know when this was introduced in Oz.

You don't want to sound like a right twat, so we don't go around saying:

"Back home, we've had that for aaaaages". They'd probably just retaliate by calling us convicts or something.

Oh yeah, those of you that are talking about sending over birthday prezzies for us - none of this palaver, orright?
