HI Gang,

Happy Ozzie day to all you Wallabies, as a non-Australian I thought I would
remind us Northerners (Hemisphere) that even Australia has national pride
and a special day. I just can't quite get the accent, though. =)

Just out of interest what is a hoolie (it doesn't look like a typo). I know
I might look like an ignorant Canadian/American but I am English and though
my stay here in this arctic hellhole maybe permanent I consider my
linguistic (British) skills to be quite good. I might look foolish but I
won't stay ignorant. =)
