Sorry no time to post proper. But some Aussie info for you
There's an old joke: How do you make an Irish man dizzy? Stand him in a barrel and tell him to piss in the corner...
That sprung to mind today when I was presented with the pool table to the left. The black board (sorry PC correct UK, the writing board) says on it "Make your own rules!"
I'm told that this pool table has been the scene of more pool related fights than any other in Brisbane. No shit eh? I love a game of pool, and I used to play pretty well when I was a wee young 'un, but imagine being faced with that for a hustley decider game? Bollocks.
Today the joke was definitely on me. How do you make pommie blogger dizzy? Stand him in front of that bastard and tell him the white ball is at the other end....

There we have it. Everything you need to know about Australia. Completely accurate. ahem. I've not got much time so I had to fill some space quickly. You'd better get ready to rest your sphincters tomorrow though, because I've actually got quite a lot of random shit to share. So to speak. That's slang of another kind, not to be taken in any way literally.
And it's not all about sex or anything. Mainly.

pommie?

oh, and, as creator of Vuboq's Meat-Free Monday, I proudly introduce the Australia Corollary: Meat-Free Monday may be celebrated on Tuesday in Australia.
You're welcome. Now, go eat something with tofu in it.
*smooch*
Let me add to your guide:
No wuckin' furries = I mean 'no problem', but this way I sound both cool AND dyslexic.
kin'oath = That's 'absolutely', but I don't want foreigners to know what I mean.
Give us a blowjob, mate = I would like oral sex from you.
Vuboq: ooh, I tofu'd out! They do great deals on veggie subway over here!
Jay: Yep, sorry, I missed "kin'oath" of my list, but it was for a reason! [strewth mate, go easy eh?! Have to skull a tinnie from the eskie and shudda in the corner, eh?]
You see the subtle point here? My first guide was "Aussie for beginners", the more advanced stuff comes later! (for example, 'gizza a suck, eh?' rather than 'give us a blowjob, mate'!)
