  Amusing none the less. I thought I would spout a few Ozzisms for the =
benefit of non-Aussies . I still keep telling my wife's friend in =
Florida to watch out for the dropbears when she visits. But she don't =
believe me . I dont have a good poker face.

  Well I'm off like a Bondi tram. That was one my mother used to say. No =
trams in Bondi now, only Buses from Circular Quay.
