    We don't say laundry liquid. Tha's just what the shop calls it for some reason. We would usually say washing powder or washing detergent.

    You didn't mention that Australia food has a health star rating of five stars. If a food is healthy then it's five out of five stars and if unhealthy a lower number of stars. Tim Tams get half a star out of five showing they're very unhealthy. Foods like San Remo wholemeal pasta gets five out of five stars but brown rice only gets four out of five stars. Baked Beans get four out of five stars probably because of the aromatic after effects.

    The rail line Greg is only one small part of a much longer rail line to Forsayth in the desert regions of Queensland and the train the Savanalander does a four day trip with people on the train staying in local pubs at night. How's your leg now and have you fully recovered. I like how the title reads Rainforest Railway. Being an American I did think it may read Rainforest Railroad but we call railroads railways due to our English heritage.

    Great video. Here in Western Australia, almost everyone does 10 over, because the speeding fines are so cheap compared to the eastern states, and the cops generally won't mind unless you're being stupid. Welcome to Aus!

    It's a lazy practice by some postal delivery contractors of not taking the time to knock and see if anybody is home, but just dropping a card in your letterbox and continuing on to the next address to do the same thing. They're delivering cards, not parcels. Delivery to a post office =/= delivery to a home.

    It is not weather mate, it is the seas. Weather is heat, cloud cover, rain etc. sea conditions is wave height, direction and rate of waves. Use Seabreeze or similar apps to check two or three days out for any boat activities. If the sea conditions are bad, delay the booking

    If a finger bun tastes like a hot-dog bun, you have far too much sugar in your hot-dog buns. Finger buns are sweet buns with sugar in them, hot-dog buns are bread rolls with no sugar anywhere near them.

    Love your content Greg ! We are Aussies living in Melbourne and have done the same pontoon experience. We also had pretty crappy weather (I'll never forget a heap of people who were really sea sick) We enjoyed it - but were shocked at the amount of coral bleaching. But, the marine life was superb. We've travelled to Port Douglas a number of times and love it (also Palm Cove). Are you planning to film there - and the Daintree ? I'm sure your audience would be interested. Keep the great content coming ...

    Australian's will commonly call Americans Yank instead of Yankee, as it comes from rhyming slang for septic tank (they aren't directly calling you a yankee). There's an uncommon variation of 'seppo', shortened for septic tank. I've only heard people in the army use that one though. It was popularised from a period where American soldiers passed through Australia during ww2 and caused a bit of a raucous. Today 'yank' is embedded in the culture and meant in jest, and not as an insult. So Americans will hear it from Aussies they are friends with at some point, even abroad. Australian's can't help but take the piss out of their mates to the point that I think they feel pain holding it in
