    Yeah ingat lang sa redback saka kingbrown snake. Hehe. Madami nun latter sa place ng Tita ko bandang QLD. As long as hindi lang sila ma-threaten you'll be safe. Madami na nga napapatay na dogs niya eh, kukulit kasi nun dogs hinahabol saka kino-corner.

    Mga kabayan ingat lang ha, baka meron sa atin na-miss kabataan makakita ng redback isipin parang gagambang tala lang sa Pinas. Hahaha. Yun may white spot sa likod. May naglaro ba dito ng ganun nun bata pa? :D

    @LokiJr iwasan nyo lang yung redback spider na madalas makita sa mga backyard.

    Yung iba na spider sa lobo ng bhaya naman, hindi nanganngagat hehehe...

    Ipis naman dito madalas mestiso at saka hindi pa yata ako nakakita ng ipis na lumlipad tulad sa pinas.

    Niresearch ko - german cockroach ang species. Siguro nag migrate din galing germany.

    @hotshot - oo buong Austalia may redback pero di naman yan karamihan. Ako few times palang, nakakita, sa mga garden yan usually at hindi sa loob nang bahay. Mabagal gumalaw, huwag ka lang ma-shock kayang-kayang patayin.

    Kung meron kayong garden set, check nyo bago upuan, favorite din nila yan. Also dapat i-educate ang mga bata about it.

    Once lang ako natakot sa redback, e kasi naman mga 10 silang magkakasama sa ilalim nang paso - yaaay!

    @clemf, hi at welcome, kamag-anak niyo si @JClem? hehe

    Tanong ko sa mga nasa Australia na, pahirapan ba intindihin accent diyan? hehe...or makaka-survive na sa neutral English natin?

    @LokiJr - yes, sa experience ko noon medyo maraming times hirap ako sa accent. Minsan late at night sa train station nag announce nang change sa service. Tatlo kaming pinoy, walang maintindihan. Sumunod lang kami sa ibang tao na lumipat nang line, buti tama yung nasundan namin kasi last service na yon.

    Makakatulong manuod nang Australian channel (130 sa SkyCable), pang practice sa aussie accent pati terminologies.

    naku...oo nga pala no...kelangan masanay din nga pala sa accent. sa ngayon, fine-tuned na ang tenga ko sa singlish (taga sg kasi ako) and kolish (korean-english kasi nasa korean company ako). pero tingin ko mas worse ang singlish and kolish accent kaysa sa oz accent so madali naman siguro makaka-adjust. hehehe

    opo sa una talaga mahirap po sila intindihin kasi most of them kinakain ang salita.
    kya mlaking bgay ung pagpunta po d2 wak muna pakabit ng TFC pra msanay lang sa accent.
    isa pa po dami din nilang SLANG o ung mga words na pag di ka aussie u'll get lost.
