General / Off-Topic Happy Australia Day everyone!

Time to break out the barbie, grab a coldie, throw a pile of snags and steaks on(*), and relax while watching the kids play backyard cricket before heading off down to the beach.


Or at least that's what I'd love to be doing - instead I'm freezing my bleeps off here in Tokyo LOL.

Frontier are even getting in on the act by having the Aussie Flag paintjob on sale!

So have a great one everybody; I'll be somewhere hugging a fumarole in my SRV!

(*) Despite common belief, no self-respecting Aussie would ever put a shrimp on their barbie! First of all we call 'em prawns, and secondly, it's red meat that goes on. The sheilas usually bring a token salad or two. But shrimps on barbies is what them wussy Yanks do.
 
Happy "everything is out there to kill you" country day! :)
On a more serious note. You bunch are a bit weird, and I love it. Congratulations!

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
Everything I know about Australia I learned from watching Crocodile Dundee and Mad Max. :D

I'm totally ignorant, I grant. Lol.

Huzzah for Australia though!
 
Happy birthday Oz!

I have many Ozzy mates, great peeps... Much love to our Ozzy cousins from Blighty.
