And now on to your phrases:

a nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse = ?
(well a blind horse wouldn't see either a nod or a wink so I guess that means they are meaningless ?)

Yes

a bogon = ?
(A bog is a marshy area ... so maybe it means 'travelling over a bog on a sled' - like a toboggan)

no. a bogon describes a person. No idea why, but usually it describes someone who wears their hair in a mullet and has an "attitude". (tell me if you need translation for mullet lol)

bush telegraph = ?
(someone who runs through the bush with a message delivers a 'bush telegraph')

(a cheap time piece)

I heard about the weather. Lots of rain and boiling water? Hope you're using your light (nightlight is it called?) so you can get some benefit from that on the dreary days.
