right mate. g'day mate! :D

 

G'day mate..

Here I'll put your stubbies in the esky... What's new?

 

Hey, gr8 to hear from you mate!

How's things in Noo Jersey??

 

not bad mate. hot here!

 

So take off all your clothes.

 

whoa. easy mate.

 

You might be wanting the San Francisco lounge??

In our lounge we keep our blue singlets and stubbies on.. You may however remove your work boots and wear thongs instead.. We do have a dress code here... :p

 

We're here to help some of you guys loosen up a little. Lock & Load called for us!

 

Take care... "thongs" translates differently in the rest of the world...and this makes it sound like this IS the San Francisco lounge! :p

 

Just about to say the same thing! :D :D

Keep your gear on and just keep cool by lubricating with a fizzy malt or five.

 

Australians wear thongs when hanging out with the guys??

LOL

 

they use malt for lubrication?

 

what are stubbies mates?

 

Sigh... I WAS warned..


Okay picture of two blokes (that would be men in your lingo) wearing singlet, stubbies and thongs (check the feet):

Our beer also comes in a stubbie - we use our language to confuse terrorists.. The big fella in the front is a famous (but now empty) Darwin stubbie..

I recommend this link to unravel some of the mysteries of Australia - be warned - not everything is there.. We have to keep some secrets.. :D

Good luck

There's malt in beer right?

Beer is fizzy right?

It's fun to give everyday things different names right?

Still with me?

So, instead of telling your wife you're having a beer with the guys, you tell her you're all going out for a fizzy malt.

Simple.

Now I suggest you do some research on xxup's link. :D

 

Dez started this lounge thread, way back when this place had enough to hold his interest. If you wonder what he is up to on a day to day basis, perhaps you could tune into his very own blog. A "blog" to the uninitiated is an internet journal.

Ah yes....that's Dez...made my head hurt

 

Just had a quick look - that's cool. :D

Hell, between writing and reading blogs and forum posts, it's a wonder modern man gets anything done!!!

 

I take it that Dez is still alive, but no longer has a RX-8???

 

oh yes, still has his 8...and is very much alive (although possibly thinking himself to death --see his blog )

 

i leave and the party stops. cmon mates. let's keep it going! :D

 

wow this lounge is slow.

 

The lounge is for visiting Americans. We're too busy taking threads off topic to spend much time here. :D

 

we dont get the luxury of a threaded lounge so people prefer to post lounge stuff in the main Oz forum...plus that has the additional benefit of annoying the moderators, which adds to the excitement.
