I didn't click, but I know that one already. The guys a legend!

 

As for NZ not counting as overseas, I went there (North Island) and thought it was great... except for the people :D

Was so glad to get back to Australia!!

Because all the good people are over here :hmm: We leave all the shit behind. I don't miss that place. Nice country......thats about it.

Tasmania does. You guys are weird.

OI! :D

 

I have nothing against the usual celebrations to a sensible level (BBQ, beers, mates, common sense), but the wankers who take it too far are the ones who spoil it.....

 

Today, shortly after getting assaulted, my uncles car got broken into while the police were parked behind it (!), the dopey mongrel responsible was part of a group so drunk that they had basically forgotten the reason they were drinking in the first place........

 

Bloody good thing the police were already present as my cousin was in a foul mood thanks to his fathers assault, and was already fired up enough......

 

*sigh* Bogans........

 

P.S. Dear Uncle Shady, I visited your island a couple of times, you all drive like madmen, and drink the wrong beer. Regards, Yoda. :hmm:

There is no right beer. Beer is shit. Bourbon is the way to go :D

He and his wife n bellyfruit are most definitely NOT adjusting to colder climes. (and lack of electricity, telemuhphones and flushing toilets)

Oooh them's fuedin' words there cletus....

 

BANJOS AT DAWN

DAWN? f@$k off I'm getting up that early :hmm:

 

Nerf guns at high noon.

 

And your tropic expat friends have made the right choice, I guess he's training with the AMC?

 

And who needs electrickery and telephonics when we have fire and beer and rocks? :D

You're halfway right... Beer is for swine, but Bourbon is what happens when Americans try to make Scotch and bollocks it up completely by filtering it through an old sock filled with pencil shavings.

 

A true gentleman of good breeding and social standing will prefer a highland single malt, neat, over ice.

 

An unfortunate side-effect of imbibing said beverage is the acute and instantaneous appearance of a (albeit, quite dashing) moustache, and a predisposition for hunting pheasants from the comfort of your Range Rover, whilst wearing ridiculous tartan pantaloons and knee high Argyle socks.

 

 

 

Tally ho, bogans.

I didn't expect such a quick reply... Isn't it someone else's turn to use THE Tasmanian internet connection?

I always thought they just sent letters or telegrams to the mainland where someone would type it in on their behalf?

Very true. Corn liquor is the way to go, why we produce/export that sh!+ and make corn liquor illegal is beyond me.

Makes me want to pour a drink

Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge

Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge

Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side

Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside

Well him and my uncle tore that engine down

I still remember that rumblin' sound

Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night

Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right

He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load

You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road

 

 

Your name wouldn't be John Lee Pettimore

Same as your daddy and his daddy before

 

By any chance?

 

:D

Carrier pigeons take our letters to dolphins (assuming the Japanese don't get to them first), they take it to the mainland and pass it over to puppies, the puppies deliver the mail to trained monkeys who type it all up for us on government supplied laptops running on Macca's free wifi while simultaneously checking their facebook pages on iPhones, they are very talented monkeys, it's the way of the future, kids. :D

No, Adam, but I do live 1/2 a block from "Thunder Road" also known as Kingston Pike or US11/70

So Australia Day is similar to our 4th of July, with more drinking and hooliganism?

Less fireworks, more intentionally lit fires.

Indeed.

 

Following 7shades comparison.

 

Less turkey, more booze :D

Nothing wrong with a bit of Wild Turkey
