@Brink_Thinker And that’s how us Aussies roll… #afl

[aussieexpatscominghome @ausexpatshome]

@Lord_Sugar Yes, the feeling is totally different now. Most expats I know have moved now. Few from UK, Aus, US, Canada etc now. Sad to see. But the @RHKYC is still the same. Pop down there for a drink and a famed Kellett burger #hongkong #ExpatLife

Gotta be a proud Aussie here! #aussie #CycloneAlfred

At the same time, this was happening—look at how the residents who fled Cyclone Alfred were struggling. Their entire living areas were completely submerged in water. #CycloneAlfred #Floods #DisasterRelief

Proud to be #aussie

@elli0000tt Absolutely! @kylieminogue is also an idol that spans generations & has amazing performances that are appropriate for any age.
Parents that grew up with her can take their kids to a concert & see proof that being fabulous doesn’t mean having your ass hanging out of a g-string

@88888sAccount Very true. But the CEO’s want people with overseas experience. It’s those lower down the chain that don’t put their names forward

[aussieexpatscominghome @ausexpatshome]

@Larryjamieson_ @88888sAccount A huge amount!

[aussieexpatscominghome @ausexpatshome]

@tyoiujhgffvhpo @88888sAccount Incorrect. Factor the 45% tax, road tax, GST etc. even before that senior executives are not paid anywhere near what they earn overseas.
This is why many leave again after returning.

@jacobaldridge I had 8 years of cyclones/ typhoons 42 floors above ground level. The building used to sway. I was nervous in the first few then we got used to it.
Just close your windows and tape windows with an X. This protects you if your windows smash. I’ve had it happen at 280km/hr.

[aussieexpatscominghome @ausexpatshome]

@7NewsBrisbane You do realise that one piece of wood, corrugated iron, even a random nail or screw at those speed can cause death or life threatening injury. Your reporters should NOT be doing this.
Trust me. I lived through 8 years of cyclones in Hong Kong where the speeds got up to 280 km.

7. - Champagne, beer and wine upstairs in esky, for the long haul.
All else is out of your control.

1. Here are some extra tips from our Hong Kong experience during typhoons/
- anything outside, including pots, bring inside.
- Tie down all outdoors furniture- tables upside down if possible &all chairs on top and secured to the building or secure fence. #CycloneAlfred

[aussieexpatscominghome @ausexpatshome]

6. Charge up everything- spare batteries for phones, iPads, etc.
- lots of towels in any upstairs bathrooms. Toilets can overflow if there is a flooding.
- cushions & blankets in case you need to hunker down in hallways from the wind in case of a broken window.

@kharrmah We had about 12 during 8 years in Hong Kong. Three were extremely bad. Close your curtains and stay safe

Doesn’t get much more Aussie than this..
State premier from Western Australia calling @JDVance @VP a knob.

In Australia that means dickhead, ya knob!

West Australia's Premier Roger Cook has called US Vice-President JD Vance a "knob" during a leadership forum in Perth.
Cook was participating in a rapid-fire "finish the sentence" game with a reporter.
JOURNALIST: JD Vance is a …
ROGER COOK: Knob.
