Weekdays for the commute it's a leather jacket and Draggins.
Weekends for fun it's the 2-piece.
Outfit doesn't change depending on the weather... but if it's bucketing down I'll put on a rainsuit. No such thing as too hot for the right gear!

As a POM who moved here 2 years ago to Melbourne - Pin back ya lug 'oles
Bring as much as ya can.........sweaters too, anything here that resembles winter warmth costs an arm and a leg, and not just m/c gear, good tools are very expensive and if you're a tradesman bring some quality overalls with you, again pricey here, treat the missis to some new underwear as the quality here is not as good unless you want to get a second mortgage (trip to Marks and Sparks
) so load up your container with as much as ya can.
Watch the bastards when they load the container, we had to leave before they finished and half of our bleeding stuff has disappeared and the insurance isn't worth the paper it's written on !
If you want to know anything else there's a few expats on here to help
And before you whinging Aussies start.............Yes it's still worth the move

I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it.
