For Aussie's only:
Same back at ya mate! too bad about missing out on the tucker but you'll have to hightail your bum back down under for a beaut fair dinkum barbie... nothing like sharing some snags, a couple of chops, some chook and the blowies with some aussie blokes. Of course it won't be just blokes, there will be little ankle biters and the sheila's of course.
If the barbie is by the beach, don't forget your bathers and a spare set of daks. And don't forget your thongs; even the kids will have them.
For entertainment, there's nothing more true blue on Australia day than a game of two up and the footy on the wireless. And if you're a bit of a boozer, i'm sure you'll enjoy knocking back some tinny's - drinking like a fish until you're off your face. Just don't start acting like a drongo or the coppers will haul you away in a divvy van... leaving us to chant "YOU'RE GOING HOME IN THE BACK OF A DIVVY VAN!"
Best entertainment available this side of bay 13.
Lastly, for sweets, there's always some chokkie cake and a bit of pud. Sounds like a grouse time, hey?
Good onya mate! Have a good one! Hooroo!
(LOL... hope that makes you miss home. Scarely how much slang we use... Australian slang is almost another language in it's own right! I wonder how many USA boyz understood this?
)
As for me, i'm celebrating Australia day with some vietnamese friends.
