Yeah mate, I'm from Gippsland, about three hours east of Melbourne.

I got a black belt in TKD a few years ago, and since then I've been cross-training or cross-referencing (whatever you want to call it) with various other styles. I don't call myself a TKD-ist any more, just MMA.

As soon as my youngest turns 18 (he's 5) I may very well be adding my name to the aussie list. Seems like a great place to live.

Yeah, it's not too bad. Although the governments attitude to citizens defending themselves sucks the big one. Here, a taser, pepper spray, or an airhorn is considered a "prohibited weapon that is purely offensive in nature."

Don't even think about getting a handgun.

Mate, I know exactly where Murray Bridge is. The old man of one of my mates lives there, and I've been there for his 21st.

Fancy that. Small world, eh?

Too right. That's quite a trip from Melbourne to Murray Bridge.
