G'day mates! Welcome to the Australian Discussion thread. Here you can discuss your favourite (or gripe about your least favourite) things about Australia! Whether you are Aussie or not, you're all fair dinkum! Make sure you just have friendly natter, and if you have a blue, take it outside! If you want, just put on some thongs, just lie back, slip on some sunnies, take a snooze and smell the cooking snags and prawns (bloody oath, they are good) First of all, what do you think of Abbot?
Me: Strewth he's bad.
