I don't think Aussies have the patent on Poms, that's what they're called here too. But they hardly ever beat us at anything so we don't often need to use the "stkinkin' poms" line.

"Whinging Poms" is however used on a daily basis.

And Dave still giggling at that.

Could be a great band name :

"CBR Dave and the Aussie **** Stars"

Really it's P.O.M.E. which stands for Prisoner Of Mother England. It's a reference to the convict settlement of Australia by the UK.

The Aussies refer to us as "poms" which I don't have a problem with since one of the corner stones of Australian society is hanging **** on everybody (in good spirits) any chance they get...one of the reasons i settled in the colonies.

I must say, however, that "davetheporn" has a certain...er...ring to it.

Yeah I'm liking it. I guess with your status as a Hitman you can probably change your user name without starting a new account.

Please consider tho' adding "king" to the end of it.

No mate, I'm just a welcome biatch...no status whatsoever.

I wonder how many others misread my username...more to the point, I wonder what made their eyesight so bad.

Cheers and goodnight Dave, and just by the way.

What exactly is it that you're doing to that poor fish?

Yeah, goodnight mate.

A more apt question would be, what's that fish doing to me?... I'm off to bed, it's been fun!

Oi geezer. I'm definitely stinking having just got back from work and definitely a bloody Pom. You know we beat you, on a 50/50 basis I reckon. Then you beat us, etc, etc etc... I for one am totally crap at Cricket, golf, surfing.... um what else....? I think I know how to light a barbie though but trying to cook anything on it? Nah....!!!
That's where you guys would thrash the entire world if it was an Olympic sport. 100 metre barbie. Yep, you'd have it in your fury little pouches from the off.

Anyway Boing,
change that tensioner and have some nice quiet fun with her. Enjoy your new girl to the full mate.
The info on how to is all here. Just shout if you get stuck.
Enjoy the forum, it's becoming the new facebook, like Fridays are now Wednesday, or is it Tuesday......?

Too right on the barbeques! One basic rule though: All competitors must have one hand wrapped around a cold beer at all times while cooking or instantly disqualified.

Shall try and enjoy her once I've picked her up - I've got to bring her from Sydney to Canberra and its unregoed... so need a ute to roll it on. Otherwise I'm considering trying to rego it in Sydney (should be quite doable) and ride back, with the stuck-in-nowhere-at-nightfall option being riding back unregoed. I really don't want to do that though.

Don't get me started on days! I work night shifts at a pub and its sometimes hard to keep track of the day. I know Sunday is my day/night off and Tuesday is payday... thats about it.

Cheers - boingk
