He asked the Australian farmer, "And what are those?"The Australian farmer replied with an incredulous look, "Don't you have any grasshoppers in Texas, mate?"

West Australian company gives paraplegics the chance to ride a motorcycle a
2008-05-23 15:00:00 It’s a sad fact that if you ride motorcycles for any length of time, you’re more than likely to run into somebody who used to ride bikes but can’t any more due to catastrophic injury - often these are injuries sustained in bike crashes. I’ve known several ex-bikers who have sustained life-changing injuries through the sport, and a few common threads emerge: most have no regrets, most are getting on with life with strength and dignity, and most would desperately love to ride again one day. And not a trike, a proper, leaning-in-the-corners, motorcycle. Whether or not they should ride again is one question - a question upon which these folks’ families would probably have a fairly firm opinion - but thanks to West Australian company Dreamfit and its founder Darren Lomman, paraplegic riders can now have a motorcycle retrofitted to allow them to re-live the freedom of the open road on two wheels. The dreamfit retrofit addresses several differe...

Britons snap up Australian properties
2008-05-21 02:00:00 People from the UK are among the most prolific buyers of property in Australia, new figures have revealed. According to the Real Estate Institute of Australia, Britons are third-largest group of foreign property buyers in the country, reports Homes Overseas. Statistics from the group showed that British investors bought more than £1.27 billion worth of property in Australia last year. This accounts for more than a tenth of the overall amount of foreign investment in Australia attracted last year. Britons were only outnumbered by people from Singapore, along with investors from the US. Figures showed that New South Wales was one of the main hotspots for foreign buyers during 2007, along with Queensland. Collectively, these two regions were said to account for nearly half of the overseas investment in Australia last year. This comes after the country was described as a "safe bet" for investors by the Foreign Property Buyer website.
