Yawn.

If it's past your bed time Eddie then perhaps you had better put down your homework and finish it in the morning.

[Eddie]

At least with you we always know what your response will be:

1. If you are Australian you will be told that you are simply from a colony of convincts and have no culture, history or achievements of your own.

2. If you are me, or probably anyone under the age of 25 who happens to disagree with you, you are met with some amazingly clever retort about your age.

[Cheshireblue]

Nonsense Eddie old boy. There are a number of members of this board who are under the age of 25 and capable of making a reasoned, rational comment on a subject that interests them.

It's just that you are not one of them.

Now dry those eyes and get back to your rusks.

[neekoy]

Sorry, you've lost me there. I don't speak Crim. What exactly are you saying?

HURHURHUR

You are obviously the exception to British wit and humour

In 1608 Shakespeare could show you heaven with his words, now you just buy a one way flight to Australia.

Funny how my Ex-PA has just dropped me an e-mail saying that she can't stand it over there and is coming back to the UK next June, and can she have her old job back.

One mans heaven is obviously another womans idea of a charismaless desert with little to commend it other than its climate.

Each to their own my boy, each to their own.

Are you talking about some upper class sexual position?

Please explain WTF charismaless is or is it something you learnt at the public school?

Dear South Aussie Rover (it's nice that you have names now rather than just numbers)

Charisma: the special virtue of an office, function, position, etc., that confers or is thought to confer on the person holding it an unusual ability for leadership, worthiness of veneration, or the like.

By addind the suffix "less" you make the word mean the exact opposite, ie meaning that it is devoid of all the traits previously described.

I didn't go to a public school, at least not what we English call a public school. Your lot might call it a public school, but that is the quirk of modern language.

God save your gracious queen, long live your noble queen.....

oh god, what next "5 dollars too the pound?"

Grow up both of ya's

Quite frankly that's a bit rich coming from you Flopsy.

Btw I've got tickets to the Rugby world sevens next year.

[RoversFanUSA]

oh god, what next "5 dollars too the pound?"

I hope not!!!

[Rovermatt]

I would imagine he's referring to Australian dollars which are notoriously crap against the pound.

[dave birch]

But not at the moment.

Don't mention the netball as well.

[Rovermatt]

A girl I work with just left her job and moved to Australia. As a going away present the (notoriously tight) partners gave her $400 which only amounted to 100 quid. So it only cost them less than 20 quid each.

[dave birch]

Then they are tight, the current exchange for the quid would have cost them about 175.00 pounds for aus$400 or they may have been subtracting their usual for "expenses and photocopying"

[Rovermatt]

Most likely.
