This is the sign you are greeted with at the Australian Jungle Wing, Tully NQ. It used to sit at the top of Heartbreak Ridge after you dragged your arse to the top with full marching order for 3 days. Now it sits at the entrance to the mess.

And the sun is always shining right until you drive through the gates, then it pisses down for your entire visit.

Tully has a tropical rainforest climate. With an average annual rainfall exceeding 4,000 millimetres (160 in), and the highest-ever annual rainfall in a populated area of Australia (7,900 millimetres (310 in) in 1950), Tully is arguably the wettest town in Australia.

Babinda is shite for it as well. Tully was always a fun trip, rats jumping over you in the middle of the night, mozzies carrying blokes off, wait a while and fucking gympie. Long sleeps though, so there's a bonus

An elderly Chinese tourist goes into a bank to change some currency, when the bank teller hands over the money, the old lady notices there is less than last time she did the transaction.

"Hey" she shouts at the teller, "what this, yesterday you give more for renminbi. You rob me now?"

"The different currency values go up and down each day madam" explains the teller.

"What you mean up and down?" she demands.

"Fluctuations" says the teller.

"Oh yeah" the old lady screams, "well fluck you too round-eye!"
 
A blonde woman was driving down the road when she notices that she's low on gas, so she stopped at a gas station.

While she's pumping her gas, she noticed that she'd locked her keys in the car.

So when she went inside to pay, she asked the attendant for a coat hanger so that she could attempt to open the door herself.

She returned outside and began to try to open the lock.

After about ten minutes, the attendant got curious and came out to see how the blonde was faring.

Outside the car, the blonde was moving the hanger around and around while another blonde inside the car was shouting,

"A little more to the left...a little more to the right!..."

I had to google “gympie”. Jesus H...even the plants try to fuck you up in Australia! I read an account of some poor bastard that said it hurt every time he showered for 2 years!!

Yeah, heard a story of someone wiping their arse with it. Unsure whether that was true or not...

Don't want to run into a Cassowary around there either....

There were two blokes in my old battalion that the highers tried to charge for shooting blanks at a cassorwary whilst running for their lives from it.

At first I was thinking:

Cassowary.

And it all makes sense. I think. Never try and understand Australia before drinking morning coffee. Or while sober.
