I was confused by what the map represented as well. Using Google Image search I see the heading was cropped out of the picture. Another version of the map without the country overlays. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Koppen-climate-classification-of-Australia-adapted-from-45_fig1_350760601 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toy Boy Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Being a lazy old fart, I must admit that I like the minions filling the car up for me in Thailand, giving the windscreen a wash and even checking the tyres if I ask nicely. They know there's always a 20 Baht note at the end of it for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They know there's always a 20 Baht note at the end of it for them. One of my first jobs was pumping gas for a bloke who owned a Mobil service station. The guy looked like Santa Claus who just ate out an elephants ass. One early Sunday morning I was working, hungover to the gills. I was filling up some old girls car, took her money and went inside to make change. I looked up and she had backed up ripping the hose out of the pump. Gas was shooting out of the pump at full pressure. It was not a pleasant day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
