I'm going on holidays to Australia soon, is it true that you can ride Kangaroos like horses there?

Question

And are there shops where I can buy Koala Bears? real ones not stuffed ones? Do they speak english there?... i am realy quite excited about it! Can you catch a bus or train to London from Australia?
It should be a good trip, I have never been out of Tasmania before!!
Can anyone give me some advice?

Answer 1

You can ride kangaroos in most major cities but on holidays you must wear a seatbelt.

Live koalas can be bought at any good bottle shop (you even get a discount if you buy a slab of VB at the same time). But you'll need an esky to take it overseas on your way back to Tassie.

On days of the week starting with T, they speak English but on for all other days there is a rolling timetable of Swahili, Bulgarian and Yiddish. This can get a bit confusing but the good news is that, even if you don't speak the relevant language, everyone will understand you if you just speak slowly and very loudly in your own language.

No buses or trains from London but I understand that there is a glass elevator that runs between both places (I think the cost is something one chocolate bar). It's a pity you're not coming from China because they have just opened that new superfast tunnel through to between Sydney and Beijing that goes right through the centre of the earth.

The best part about coming to Oz is that if you let Johnnie Howard know your coming he'll even come to the airport to pick you up.

Answer 2

No, no, no - you have it all wrong - we ride emus nowadays - strewth where have you been?!?

Koalas can be purchased from most newsagencies as long as you have a passport to prove who you are. K-Mart are bringing out a line of Koalas soon too, so you can take your pick of the litter. Wombats should soon be available.

You can also now eat koalas - very good in a curry or stir fry. The reason for this is beacuase kangaroos are no longer hunted purely for transport, we have eaten most of them, the emus days are probably numbered too.

Of course you can catch a bus from London to Oz. Just make sure it has a very large snorkel. Come via the Ashmore Reef, there is a lovely Resort that you can stop over en route.

Now don't forget, when you get here to smear vegemite all over your skin - it acts as a very good sun block

Answer 3

Yeah, you can ride Kangaroos here. You hire them for 5 dollars a day and use their tails to whip them to go faster. Koalas come with the Kangaroos for use as cushiony seats because all that bouncing up and down hurts - trust me. We don't have buses or trains, everyone just rides Kangaroos. For a higher fee you can ride a Kangaroo to London. It's a little known fact that Kangaroos actually have such strong legs that they can just jump from country to country over oceans and cities. International Kangaroo travel requires a helmet be worn by law. We speak Australian, not english, fool. I though everybody knew all this, I can't believe you even have to ask.

Answer 4

Yep of course ya can

Whaddya learn in Tassie???? Haven't ya learnt the great Koala Stampded of 1933????????

$25 to buy a live Koala up here in the terriritry coz the tin tanks & pommy's are stupid enough to buy one let em I say.

We don't speak Friggin english over here we speak OZtralian. Bloody oath we do.

Can't catch a bus nor train to London but ya can hop right up to Darwin from Melbourne on a Kangaroo - dial 1300 kanga's express for the cost of a can of beer. Then the cheapest way to london is to get a ride on an empty refugee boat as they give em away for Taswegians only.


Is ya sister coming along mate??????? Is this true? To circumcize a Tasmanian whaddya do????? Kick his sister in the mouth.

To the wanker who said we have cars in Oztralia come on you must live in tha city we can't afford one up here - kanga's do quiet nicely thankya.

Just don't go and scare us all with ya two heads now will ya mate.

Answer 6

That is so funny,Your question is not as dumb as it looks. Did you know that some Americians think that there is kangaroo's jumping all over the Harbour Bridge and Opera House.
I must say Tasmania is a beautiful place. I went there 30 years ago with my high school from Sydney. I now live in Perth.

Take care and thank you for putting a smile on my face.

Answer 7

Answer 8

It's true we ride Kangaroos, we are a four Kangaroo family. My neighbours can only afford two kangaroo's, they cost allot to run/jump.

Yes you can buy real Koala 's but only in Sydney. They are planing opening more shops in Melbourne and Brisbane.

No we don't speak English, we speak Australian.

The transport workers that run the Trains and Buses to the UK are on strike for two weeks.

While your here don't forget to catch a ride on the Space Shuttle
