  1. Same! It boggles my mind how some US Americans get soooo uptight or offended over "swear words" yet don't blink about all the violence on TV, movies or sadly in the streets. Why give so much power to a few words? Lol. Obviously I don't mean Ian or his family, they are not easily offended. Plenty of Americans don't care too much about swearing ...but a lot do. Might do some people over there some good to vent and have a good swear now n then rather than getting ragey in other ways.

  2. Yeah Melbourne weather sucks. Almost always is windy af when I've been there. It gets colder in autumn and winter there too. SE Qld is more similar to California in terms of having stable weather. We don't get the crazy heatwaves that NSW Ans Victoria get. I loved in Sydney for 12 years until 2021 and I experienced way more crazy heat and hotter temps there than in South East Qld. Most water in Australia is pretty good quality. It's all safe. Britta water jug filters are pretty common in the households in Australia. And some more remote areas use rainwater and have tanks on their property. Tbh hardly anyone uses coins and cash in Australia. We've been a largely paywave country for the last 8 years or so. We were one of the first countries to embrace and roll that out everywhere. On one hand it's convenient and great but on the other hand it's kinda sad becay our money is so beautiful and innovative. In terms of temperature conversion, the weather apps have all that info. No need to calculate in your head, you'll eventually pick it up. Much easier than Fahrenheit. In summer, the temperature is less important than the UV index. That's what you need to look at before heading out and take the appropriate sin protection measures depending on the radiation levels. Anything 3+ requires some protection. Anything 6+ requires full protection. Anything 10/11+/extreme it's advisable to stay indoors or reduce your time outside and use full protection. Guess there's no need for Cars here to show miles because it's not used at all here on the roads. Unlike the UK that uses a hybrid system, we fully converted to metric in the 70s. I like Elly's channel. Her other differences delve in a bit deeper of I recall. It's interesting as she's readjusting to Aussie life again. Her parents are Australian and her extended family are here but she's spent her formative years in America. So it's still a bit of a culture shock.
