It seems that Aussies
have an interest in just about every thing.

"Aussies are well known world wide
for their inventivness"

We are great collectors of just about anything

From teaspoons to cigarette cards, Beatles and Elvis Presley memorabilia, postage stamps, trains and train sets, match-box toys and ceramic dolls.
Someone in Australia will have a collection, but it does not stop there. Australians love to gamble and will bet on just about anything. In fact horse racing in this country has a great following. Many people have shares in race-horse syndicates.

Local Social and Sports Clubs Many Australians support there local social clubs. Which are in just about every major city or town in the country? They have restaurants, entertainment, dances, bingo and poker nights, gambling machines as well as entertainment for the children and many outside activities as well. Of course that is not all they do Many of the clubs are non-profit organizations that put much back into their local communities, by employing many and supporting the local charities like the disabled and sporting associations. Many have internal fishing, darts, snooker, and lawn bowls clubs. Not forgetting the social events, live bands, and karaoke nights. There are sSurf clubs, RSL, or Returned Servicemen's clubs, and workers clubs to mention a few. Other hobbies include, needle work, sewing, knitting and patch-work quilting is growing at a rapid speed.

With the invention of the digital camera and computers, photography has just exploded in Australia; you will see people snapping a pic everywhere.

Australians also like to help their fellow Aussies! In time of catastrophe WE ARE All THERE TO HELP. Aussies are not shy and we will dip into our pockets no matter how broke we are to help our fellow Australians when they are in trouble.

Australia is a large land and we have a small population, and our country is subject to the whole range of natural disasters.

Volunteering is a way of life for many of us. We joint the bush fire brigade, deliver meals on wheels, help train a dog for the blind, visit a person in hospital, become a surf life saver or just knock on doors to collect money for the red cross.

Aussies are fortunate that there are so many people willing to give up their time to help others.
