You've had to wear a helmet when riding a bicycle here since I was a kid. Its not a new law.

Which is precisely why nobody casually rides bicycles and the only people who do are children or Lycra cyclists. Nobody else wants to look dorky in a helmet. Even hipsters ditch their fixies when they realise they have to wear a helmet.

If you don't carry a knife on your vest, you aren't doing it right.

Frogs and small rodents. We have 4 species, only one (mildly) venomous and none grows to much more than about 4ft in length on average.

NSW not having much joy with the weather at the moment. 3 people have died when their houses washed away, and 2 more are missing.

The NSW Premier (like a Prime Minister at state level) declared at 3:30pm that everybody should go home from work and stay inside for the night.
I don't think anybody did. :lol:

Several schools were closed (mostly in Northern towns) Sydney Uni, University NSW and several TAFEs have cancelled classes.
