THIS BEING AUSTRALIA, IT PROBABLY CONTAINED AT LEAST FOUR VENOMOUS CREATURES

Is that better or worse than a kerfuffle?

It could have been worse. It could have been a Vuvuzela.

Or an accordion...

What do you call a repeat diger?

Jeff,
Tsk tsk tsk, watch your langue, this is a family blog.

A good friend who worked for a major Colorado mining company was sent to Australia to temporarily manage a gold mine because the resident manager "Had left unexpectedly."
He later said he missed a clue there. His "temporary" job lasted over a year. He said the venomous critters are nowhere near as numerous as people thought, but that like dealing with dynamite, it usually takes only one mistake to visit The Promised Land.
He started to get out of bed one morning, but thought he saw something move by his boots. It was a Brown snake. He said to survive there assume if it crawls, walks or flies----it's venomous.
