I've never understood flightless birds either....lol...luckily I'm an Aussie not a Kiwi although my Grandfather did live there in the baad old days of the 1930s

All local variations of English seem hard for foreigners to understand initially

A lot of Aussie documentaries are sub titled for the Yanks for this very reason

I've had friends return from the US of A saying that the only time they were fully understood first time was when they spoke with an American accent

Took me a full year being around Scottish people before I got used to the
way words were pronounced but still got occasionally stumped-mainly when they were drunk

I know you're an Aussie---I was just trying to upset you.

Ain't too difficult is it!!!!!!!!!! lol

Better luck next time

I'm afraid I'm too apathetic to react most times and the other times I just read it differently to everybodyelse

cheers

.....Jodrell, eh?
So what have you done with Beagle 2, you naughty lizard?
And how the hell do you operate the controls?

.......while making the valid point that Aussie and Kiwi are about as indistinguishable to Northerners as Geordie and Lowland Scots might be to an Antipodean?

I got one of those 6 into one 'handjobs' you get from Comet!

A cannie bag o? Tudor lad, which begs the question apart from the obvious, what the fuck happened to Tudor Crisps are they still on the go, do they still sell them down south, up to about 12 years ago us Scots had the choice between Golden Wonder and Tudor crisps, Walkers had not even been heard of until about 10 years ago, any crisp nutters on the forum??

thanks for that Magoo, yeah wondered what had happened to the old ?Tudor? period, I think Smiths are still on the go as they still produce ?Salt and Shake? and ?Square Crisps? to name but two of their brands.
