Hi guys,
Wether you know it or not, Thursday the 26th is 'Australia Day'.I was working in Sydney in 1999 and was lucky enough to be there for the celebrations.What a party!!There was more than a million people on the waterfront at Sydney and one of the best firework displays i have seen in my life.Bloody hell,i almost got a tear in my eye when everyone sang the naional anthemn!!Anyway,this was just one great memory of my time in Oz.Happy Birthday Aussies!!Cheers,Shay

Hi David
Run mate run
Andy and I are both after you.
You can run but you can't hide.
You probably cant run to fast coz you are full stomach of great New Zealand lamb and Steinlager beer.
LOL
Regards
Sean

Happy Aussie Day- Mates...
Babva, thanks, enjoyed the video, of course I needed my official translator I printed up yestertday from HalfYanks Thread. So I now know what a "sheila,cliner, and sninny" (three of my favorite past times mates!!!) are, not to mention a bonzer, cobber, cow, billy, plonk, drogo, and dinkum oil.
So throw a sheep on the barbie for me, hoist a plonk in my honor, get shikkered, and stonkered at the shovoo... and run like hell from the wowsers..... (you know who they are!!!!!)......... :-) :-)
