  1. I once visited Australia. The people were bluff, hearty and to the point. There were strongly evident, often openly-voiced, undercurrents of racism and homophobia. I was severely disappointed by the endless expanse of barren nothingness. No real mountains to speak of. When you’ve seen one beach you’ve seen them all. There was also a palpable kind of unconcealed disdain for the life of the mind - even more than in the darker corners of Blighty. I realised why so many of the best Aussies, those with any real culture , for want of a better word, leave. Humphries was one such. Too good for his birth-land, too bright, too clever, he had to get out. And now he’s checked-out. Farewell, Barry.

  3.  @gerardmackay8909  Lol. Makes sense that someone from a dump like Newcastle would get off on Australia. 👍
