We have a new Prime Minister. We have been staying up watching the count - I love the political process in motion. And there was great motion, with the Labor party taking victory from the Liberal government after 11 years in power.
Here is Kevin 07... he's quite pleasant looking, whilst retaining a necessary element of nerd.
There are a few reasons why election days are great.
1. Nobody organises anything - so the day is totally free. Voting is compulsory, so everyone is committed to attending the polling place.
2. You may get to meet someone important at the booth - last election (3years ago) we got to see the Prime Minister - I shook his hand... I was giddy.
3. These are all minor points. The best part is the sausage sizzle that the local school is selling. Nothing like a fatty sausage with onions. I even got tomato sauce on my white shirt to seal the deal :)
