Normally if I tell people what city I live in (before they find out I'm from Australia) they ask me if I live in Scotland! Fair enough I suppose, there is a Perth in Scotland.

Although I do remember this idiot on a chat once who asked me (seriously mind you, not as a joke which makes it worse) if there was really a western coast to Australia. Uh...YES rhere really really is a western coast. I live on it!

Crazy stuff. Australia is just very used to being ignored I think XD we're so very very far away from all of you lot.
