[livejournal.com profile] squish_67 and I were having a discussion about us both speaking English but not understanding each other; and it’s not just my accent either!!

So I thought I’d post a couple of links to some Australian usages that may be unfamiliar to English speakers from other countries.

Well do I remember the horror of my German flatmate at the then political parties’ slogan of “Keeping the Bastards honest.” She never could understand why nobody took offence at it….
