I have this global sim which you can use in the majority of countries, and it never expires if you don't use it (like others do)
you obviously need an unlocked mobile to use it.
to call Australia land line is 17p and to call a mobile is 38p

Even cheaper:
Welcome to 18185.co.uk: UK's Leading Telephone Discounter!

Unless of course, the charge is 38p and thats it! If its 38p/min, then its probably cheaper via 18185 however if its a 38p one off charge, then thats quite the bargain.

Also, have you tried calling cards?
