     Two 4 year old boys are sitting in the waiting room at the hospital. One young bloke asks the other "what are you in for mate?". He replies"Tonsils mate,what about you?". The other young bloke replies" Im getting circumcised". "SHIT sorry mate" says the first little bloke. "Why" he goes on and tells his new little mate. "Well Mate i had that done when i was about a week old and i couldnt walk for about 9 bloody months"

    We call everyone mate..When were having a beer we're all "Maaaaaate". When we're about to punch 7 shades of shit outta some dickhead we're like"come on mate bring it ". Its just so much easier than remembering peoples names. Some of us old school blokes also use terms like"Digger,Sport,Champ,Cobber in the same way. We're a complicated mob down here.

    Dragon....don't go there mo chara (thats Irish for mate), I think the only people who understand the aussies are the irish, mainly because most of them are decendants of Irish rebels who were sent there in the 1800's. Last saturday I went to a football match Ireland V Australia..they beat us by 7 points (boring game actually, Boof) but the real game came after in the pub...then at chuckin' out time we decided to have a re-run of the game, with a milk crate instead of a ball...7-a-side, pissed drunk,it could only happen between Irish/Aussies..with the cops looking on and cheering every play............t'was great until one of the lads decided he could head the "ball", six stitches later, we retired to an early opening pub and had a debate on the merits of "soccer", I think we all agreed that milk crates were better.. Second round to come next Saturday and the Aussies 7 points ahead, we might take ye this time Boof.

    I don't know....I think I was understanding you pretty well after just a couple bottle of Jack in Sturgis.  But I think you were starting to talk pretty American after a week or so over here.
