probably cos Aus is so isolated
and England is cold - so we swap. Some of you guys think travelling four or five hours by car to be a long journey. it's not. it really isn't. In six hours I can be on the other side of my state, or over the border - past adelaide and heading towards the Flinders Ranges.

I like travelling.
I think the longest time I've travelled in a car was from Eucla to the other side of the Nullabour Plains. was about 14 hours. left at 8, got in at 10pm.
