Aussies lost their minds? - Page 4

The Aboriginals that come in to my work frequently describe someone who hasn't been around for a while as "gone walkabout". Most of these guys are from the country originally, and they tend to move between the city & "up home".

And all of this Vegemite/Marmite stuff is just a laugh. I think it was Slither that says above that you have to be born eating it to fully appreciate it. That's 100% on the money - my 20 months old daughter licks it off her fingers when she has her toast in the morning!! I'd hate to be an adult having my first taste of it - Vegie has a bite to it.

I think it was Pinkbits who said that Circusboy, but it's so true, just like with cricket, you have to grow up with if to fully appreciate it. My mother doesn't like it at all, and she calls herself an Aussie? Oh the shame of it!
