Heh heh ... Cor blimey and where's me cuppa tea ...
<snort>
I got asked today if I know Sonja in Sydney ... I told the guy: "Swingin' Sonja? Fucken oath, yeah I know her. She's the one that got arrested in Kings Cross for walking down the street naked singing Barnesy while pissed. What a kick-ass sheila!" (Yes, I pull on the Aussie when being facetious)
He gave me that look ... you know the one. The one where they are telling you to stop being an ass without actually saying anything...
I just shrugged and told him there were 19 million people living across the country. As much as I had an active social life while there, I don't believe I know all of them ...
He immediately sat down and loudly, with overly exaggerated movements, snapped open the newspaper.
Ahh, that made my day.
Oh, and BTW, they weren't Canadian or American. This guy was South African .... LOL And they're usually the ones who get it right!

Oh Gosh, I could do with an ice cold VB right now ....

Ahh, but Met.
League was created in Aussie as a sport for the blue-collar bloke.
Union was considered a more classy game for the more classy gentleman. The mining Aussie grot needed something more ... manly ... Heh heh
So, yeah ... We stole the original idea, played with it abit, created something a little different, and then handed it back to you.
As I said: Perfecting what the Brits create ... <grin grin>

Ahh, nothing like a little sibling rivalry between the Brits and Aussies ...
