Hi
Okay for those who now think Waltzing Maltida and I still call Australia
Home are our official national anthems you are being led down the primrose
path.
Officially it is Advance Australia Fair.
Most Australians only know the first bit of it. (Yes there is more to the
song.
I happen to know the whole thing
The other two songs are liked by more people .
But for other onoffical Australian Anthems what about "One last Beer"
bye
chris
