Some Funnies

[Keith Webb]

I must not be a true Australian. This is a dreadful aberration.

* You think it's normal to have a leader called Julia.

* You pronounce Melbourne as 'Mel-bin'.

It's more like "Melb'n". 'Mel-bin' is a Hollywood approximation.

* You understand that 'Wagga Wagga' can be abbreviated to 'Wagga'

It can also be called 2 wogs.

* You know it's not summer until the steering wheel is too hot to handle and a seat belt buckle becomes a pretty good branding iron.

That may have been the case before they were made with plastic covers.

* You know that some people pronounce Australia like "Straya" and that's ok.

Not when the current PM says it. (See point 1).

You believe the 'l' in the word 'Australia' is optional.

NOT.
