We have finally been relinquished from winter’s long and crusty grasp, and the smell of fresh flowers and magpies fills the air as the spring months descend upon us in all its sinusy glory *takes a breath and chokes on an agapanthus*.

Here are 33 thoughts every Aussie has during spring.

  2. F*ck you pollen
  3. Gotta put together my Xmas list for Mum
  4. Is it illegal to take flowers from other people’s gardens?

  6. Should I shave my legs or nah?
  7. Time to switch to SPF15+ moisturiser

  24. Surely the Maccas Monopoly promotion is coming back soon
  25. Should I buy a Falls ticket or groceries?
  26. I am loving this shorts weather
  27. It’s still definitely too cold to start running in the morning though
