S&S

From the OP... Thanks v much to those that have given such constructive comments. Appriciate the feedback and sharing your experiences, hints & tips. Like in Africa (where my BH grew up) it sounds like its the small 5 rather than the big 5 are the ones to look out for!! It's our pets that my wife is most concern for and your replies have helped thanks in our research & prep into Sunshine C, GC and Brisbane areas. Keep well Cheers S&S

Hi guys, Currently my wife & I are living along the Sussex coast and seriously wanting a better out door lifestyle in Aus. Should we be concerned about the natural distasters & danderous wildlife? Whilst Aus is so appealing after visiting it many times, we are so confused if it is the safest place to start a new and long chapter in our lives with the one aim to stay till the end! Our confusion lies where we will buy a property and re-locate our life... The East Coast (QLD) is best suited for our us but between fires in the hinterland, floods, earth quakes and subsequent Tsunami's along the coast, snakes, spiders in your garden or croc's or jellies harming / killing our pets... ever increasing heat, not to mention sharks in the water that we love to be active in and on! Maybe we've read to much into video clips of fires and floods etc but non the less they are still very real... Or Maybe we should just go for it and live life. We really want to know how YOU cope with all these hazards!! Anyway - cheers and thanks for any helpful replies! See ya soon! Keep safe! S&S
