This is a normal post Just to give you teh fear
Australia has (I think) 16 of the world's top 20 most poisionous snakes, (including all of the top 12). Add to that box jellyfish, redback spiders, blue ringed octopus, the Sydney funnel-web, great white sharks (probably the safest thing on this list), fire coral, cone shells, and saltwater crocs, it's not the safest place in the world. Enjoy! ;-)

This is a normal post Even the cuddly little platypus has poisonous spurs on its back legs.

This is a normal post Read the bit about them in my profile.
Also to the OP, I'll probably be the biggest Spider in Australia at that time. ;-)

This is a normal post Only the males though...
and they aren't that toxic. I was only listing the deadly ones! ;-)

And platypus have rather odd fur, its very bristle-like so if you stroke it normally, it is very soft, but backwards it's very spiky and hard.

This is a normal post Some idiot tried to mug me 5 years ago with a blunt kitchen knife.
I stalled him long enough to remove the 10" chef's knife from my bag, recently sharpened,
and convinced him to piss off promptly.
I'm not saying this'll work all the time, but have talked myself out of a mugging at 4 in the morning by a couple of junkies once,
I know how to go about both types of negotiations, so to speak.

This is a normal post No, but I wish I had now. :-(
Seriously though, my first thought was to get into my bag, witty chat went out the window.
