Antipodean Virtue

[Kzin]

There is much talk of Antipodean Virtue in these 'columns'.

Every time I see what is in the top left hand corner of these guy's & girl's flags I'm reminded of their greatest virtue and feel like buying one of them a pint of the "Amber Nectar"

I was going to say

"You forgot the option: They're as far away from the rest of us as possible.", but I'm in a good mood today so I won't.

<UNREADABLE BY AUSTRALIANS>There are many absolutely stunning things in Australia - landscapes, wilderness, wildlife, really nice people, great food/beer, sense of humour - the point of this post is to pull their legs for boasting so much. </UNREADABLE BY AUSTRALIANS>

If you lived in the best part of the world, with the best climate, and the best government..................ok scrap all that the last one gives it away.

We purposely live on the other side of the world from Canadians because you spend far too much time with bears This clearly cannot be healthy for you!

Shucks.....l've gone all red now.....

All

Don't worry about the outback, Barrier reef etc, the Government is currently in the process of selling the lot off to the Japs as car space.

Sorry Son, the flag is toast. When we get rid of that Anglophile bastard John Howard the Republic is gonna be established and the flag gets stuffed up Peter Reiths date where it belongs.

Expect something particular tacky by the way in replacement. Personally l just think we should adopt the koori flag....black top, red bottom, with a gold sun in the middle sort of a thing. Looks better than it sounds...or the Eureka stockade flag, southern cross on a blue background...Eureka was the first attempt at kiciking the pomms out, and they still haven't got the message.

Ok quick racially selected joke:

Q. How can you tell there have been Pommie tourists in Sydney.

A. There's a ring around Bondi Beach.

Actually Australia and NZ are world beaters at some things...but then every other country in the world can claim the same thing...except Afghanistan which would appear to be filled with dickheads intent on bringing back the middle ages. Next time why don't we just let the Russians nuke the *****s. Sorry, am reading about some atrocities over there in morning paper.

Congrats on getting your air crew back from the dirty rotten Chinese Government, about time too. Will rip the top off a few cold ones to help you guys celebrate.

Pommies

Ummm....Ummm...ok there must be something to celebrate over there in Pomgolia but buggered if l know what.

Canadians

Keep away from those friggin bears, l'm telling you they are trouble.

All others

Hardly matter really
