The Main Index of articles makes for some good reading especially
item 2..........we all are inclined to do it .

Steve would absolutely be someone I'd want in my corner if I got into a scrap at my local pub

Little from column A, little from column B. I got to experience some Aussies 1st hand a couple years ago on a large forest fire in Washington. We have an exchange program for manpower during the fire seasons cuz were opposites. Top notch dudes. I can't wait to work with 'em again, and boy we had a great time at the local pubs.

My favorite 2 Aussie slang terms.... "Pissing in yer pocket" and "duck nuts"! lol

I MAY have an opportunity in Deceber / January to go there in this program! I'd give up a nut to go! I may have to look him up. Wonder how I'm gonna put my old gal in my fire pack...
