The Aussie life style is worth a lot.
Yea, right. Depends where you choose to live. Reminds me of the crew of a RNZAF Hastings flying a night run years ago, between Amberley and Darwin. After landing they told the refueller they had been told there was no habitation just scrub yet they had seen millions of lights on the ground.
The refueller told them the lights were actually the up-turned eyes of the flies.
