Bloody fair enough, mate.

I handed in my citizenship application on Friday. If all goes well, I could be officially Australian by Australia Day next year, which is the 26th of January.

This is so exciting. Just excuse me for a moment while I go and put on my stubbies and my rubber thongs and go have a VB in a stubby holder to celebrate. Damn straight, we are so classy in Australia.


Stubbies, mate. So bloody Australian.












Cheers, cobber, have a VB.












Good honest Australian thongs. Fair dinkum.








Keen for a tallie? Nah, I'll just have a tinny in a stubby holder, thanks mate.

Kate Michele-I certainly will throw a big Aussie party! I hope I get my citizenship on Australia Day, as it is a public holiday and a big booze party here anyway, so that would work out really well. :-)

Mystic- You mean, including you? For sure, if you make your way to Australia, I would love to have a beer with you!

Jerry- Of course I will. All the time. Crikey!

Oh yeah, Sera, he turns me on. A typical hot Aussie guy.

Aggs- Yep, I'll have dual citizenship, which I think is the coolest thing. And of course I will have a cow bell with my stubbies and some Swiss cheese with my beer.

Somehow, Bettina, I don't see you with a "typical" ratbag guy, hot or not.

Callie- Olivia Newton John CDs? Cringe... I hope I can get away with being Australian without having to resort to extremes like that.

Sera- No? Why not? Look at the picture of me below and the picture of the guy in the stubbies. Can't you see a similarity? Similar belly size? Hahaha... we must be soul mates!

Lol. I see the similarities, now that you mention it. You both like hats. It might work.
Damn, it *could* work!
