Apologies Frank ....sorry for Hi-jacking your thread too...ooops sorry

[gibbo_335]

How long after that crash did the builder commit suicide?

You'd just wanna cry  wouldn't ya?

[airtac]

What the hell is a "crownie"

[gibbo_335]

MMMMMMM Crownie Australias Finest...it' written on the bottle label even!! ....ask 'Mom she'll tell ya how GOOOODDD these beers are airtac....she knows....Mom knows best.

[airtac]

I'd love to try one---Fosters is the only Aussie beer I've tried and it tasted like rancid Yak piss  (actually, I'm just guessing on that flavor)

[airtac]

And speaking of Aussies---I watched "On the beach" last week and damned if I wasn't humming "Waltzing Matilda" for about 4 days" , drove my wife nuts!

[gibbo_335]

EEWWW Fosters , you shouldn't do that to your own taste buds!!! That stuff is a New South Wales joke they set on the rest of the world 'cause they can't sell it to us   ...they should have a warning on the label...WARNING THIS IS NOT AUSTRALIAS FINEST...you have been warned   No not rancid YAK piss ...just normal ol' Kangaroo piss actually

that song actually drives most Aussies nuts , so why not you guys too    but please forward my "Sorry" to your wife, but also tell her not to blame me i didn't write it....uummm... and I avoid singing and/or humming it at all costs  Just think how many times I have heard it!! AARRGGGHH 

Once a Jolly Swagman.....

AARRGHH NOW YOU'VE DONE IT TO ME!!!!!

Hey, I LIKE Fosters....'course I like Corona too, so draw your own conclusions...(I hate Tequila BTW)

I also like "Waltzin Matilda"....have since I watched a movie about yacht racing called "wind" (I think that was the name)

BTW, I've gotten along with every Aussie I've ever met.  Aussies and Alaskan's got a LOT in common.  Must be the mindset. Actually every Aussie I've ever met has been an absolute HOOT to hang out with.  Probably helps I know the difference between an Aussie and a Kiwi and why it's a darn good idea to NEVER, EVER mix that up.

Besides, every Aussie I have met has more inventive uses for the "F" word then I do.  And I can involve camels when sufficently upset!

"Waltzin Matilda?"   

[FlyboyGil]

"Waltzin Matilda?"   

I believe it's the Australian National Anthem. I believe.

[Frank N. O.]

Not officially, it is to my knowledge however a song that's close to the heart of many australians, like Edelweis to austrians (as played in The Sound of Music).

Frank

[gibbo_335]

G'day,

Advance Australia Fair is the national anthem, and yes Frank it is like Edelweis....just more annoying 

Just for the trivia buffs, it was written as a poem and them the melody was added later
