"Have any Aussie travellers had problems? I'm interested to know if any anti-Yanqui sentiment has rubbed off on us as a result of Emperor Johnny's unbridled support for "The War On Terror" (coming soon to a third world country near you). Is the more recently declared "War on Tsunamis" any more winnable? "

I didnt have any trouble at all, but everyone knew who was with whom, while some would point to the farsi salam alekum under the headlight and say terrorist? So I would have been with us and against us at the same time!

I regularly dolled out small clip on koalas and sickers to confused police and border guards that wanted a "little present".

I didnt have an Australian flag on the bike because unlike GlobalGS I find it difficult to be proud of a country whos government imprisons refugees for years, supports unecessary wars, wont insist that its citizens held in US prisons are afforded natural justice and whos majority talk empathy and practise cruelty for the sake of low mortgage interest rates......but I do have some Australian freinds!

A recent bumper sticker on a car in Melbourne was a map of Australia with a statement " Fxxx Off where full"

Sean hit the nail on the head.

cheers
