Nurse Paul In Oz

[Norvic]

Crikey, Paul, couple more training seasons and you`ll be a full blown convict, cultured good enough to be a Queenslander. I`ve had a query from a local here about that Yankee "tenant" that speaks "double dutch", said he had a good yack to you while you were hunting coins. All good fun...……… but sounds like our lingo is a definite no - no in the US.

Words are just words, but, the snobbery of deciding which words are acceptable is alive and well in America...

I love Australia

I learnt a bit of lingo too, apparently these southern folk get upset being called Yankees.  It’s a bit like telling a Queenslander he has to wear a blue jersey.   I compromised and dropped two letters so now it’s just ‘The Yank’.

On ya Trent, I owe the lad a Maroon Jersey at least, for sure.?

"So if someone one calls you an F wit they are just calling you an idiot, or a looser. They could give it more punch by saying, you are an F 'ing idiot or F 'ing looser. If told to F off, it just means get out of here, go away, get out of my face, get lost. But depending how you say it, & in what context it could men something else. If you say F off in a bewildering manner then it means, your kidding, no way, bullshit, your joking, are you serious etc.... The C word just cuts a bit closer to the bone.

Among friends & family it is a bit like water off a ducks back. So if you call them a C or , your a C, it doesn't have much sting or impact "

I'm hoping the last sentence is true  or I'm in deep trouble back in Meeka....

Righto, no worries, all that lovely liquid sunshine is falling here at present, with the wet here have nothing gold related to post, tis mushroom season and if you`ve had a feed of freshly picked field mushrooms you know they are the nuggets of the NQ wet. 

Saying that I`ll post some eye candy to keep our fever bubbling...…...
