Thanks for adding guys. Starlight I understand the early morning Qlder bit lol I think most qlders think there is only one 9 o'clock in the day and as for the warmer winters I am yet to see it this year its blady freezing and very wet atm so I suppose what ever you expect expect change & be happy

Hey all I've been here 4 years now (& it is for me :yes:) I have a nosy & poke about on here every so often but full of cold and ultra bored with the fire on and the sun beaming throught the windows will always seem strange! So I thought I'd see what other people think about the differences in states I have spent time in all the states but have lived long term (12 months+) in WA & Qld and it amazes me that many people think if they don't like one part of Australia then all of it is the same there are some major differences these are MY OPINIONS from what I have noticed from my experiences I know not everyone will agree but feel free to add your's from any state Before I go any further I want to say that I love Australia all the states but feel qld suits my lifestyle more WA - flies from nov - feb SW WA is invaded by flies to the point where they can be crawling in every orifice possible Qld - Sand flies these buggers will get you all year in the right place nasty nasty! WA - there's alot of money in WA but to earn the money you will work damn hard and usually unsociable hours Qld - everyone seems to live for the weekend, as long as they got a beer & rod in hand on a Sunday they are happy WA- very natural not as developed when you leave the major centres nice to have the rugged coastline but can be hard to get to some of the worlds best beaches Qld - unless you get out of the major areas beaches are very busy especially SEQ but you don't have to go far to beat the crowds WA - Prices & choice is very limited once you leave Perth, having to send an item for repair can take weeks & lack of choice also increases the price Qld - every day general living items are cheaper I will add more as I think add yours too
