Post by: Bminder on September 22, 2013, 09:59:09 PM
Did you hear about the Aussie who crashed his bike and got brain damage?


He's a Kiwi now.

Did you hear about the Aussies and the Kiwis who don't take themselves too seriously and can have a laugh at their own expense and don't get all twisted out of shape because they don't understand the humour?

Good ole trans-tasman rivalry   :good:

One of our past Prime Ministers, Robert Muldoon, once said:

"New Zealanders who emigrate to Australia raise the IQ of both countries."

Don't go sending them back!!

If we sent them back, we'd have to re-populate a couple of Sydney's northern suburbs.   :biggrin:

Indeed, but that post didn't come from Aus.

That quote of Muldoon's was very funny, and clever.

Matt,

Seppo jokes are fine here, but you may need to explain them.    :yahoo:

Cheers,

All good natured ribbing folks :)

I'm off to Sydney in two weeks' time for a week and some R&R.  I do love Australia, having also spent time in Melbourne and Queensland. 

I won't tell any jokes, my timing is terrible ;)

About 6 years ago I ran into an Aussie here in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the bloke is from Meadow Flats, NSW, half way between Bathurst and Lithgow.  We struck up a convo and have become great cobbers, fair dinkum.  It's a long story, but we've got to know his entire fam, some are banana benders too. But he's been earbashing me to come down. I say we will someday and he gives me a gobful about saying 'someday.'  He's the ridgy-didge for sure.
I love Australia.

No worries Mates...we need more of it. Let me know if we can help ya while you`re here.

Seeing as we have a few visiting us from the America`s in early March, we may need a bit of ANZAC strength ta help fend them off. 
Let me know if ya need a ride while your here...(No I can`t supply a paddock!)...but let me know by PM if ya even a tiny bit interested in a sensational weekend or two around March 8th.  :drinks:
