Aussies have the best expressions for everything...
Not good looking - "Face like a dropped pie."
I'm not happy with you - "Get a dead dog up ya."
I'm very hungry - "I could eat the crutch of a low flying duck."
Heard today in a Tassie bottleshop...
"Want to stay safe from the virus, get a Harley...you can't catch anything on a Harley."

A little ditty from my road of Australasian nostalgia - from a pommy bastards point of view -

Australian Table Wines.

A lot of people in this country pooh-pooh Australian table wines. This is a pity, as many fine Australian wines appeal not only to the Australian palette, but also to the cognoscenti of Great Britain.

'Black stump Bordeaux' is rightly praised as a peppermint flavoured Burgundy, whilst a good 'Sydney Syrup' can rank with any of the world's best sugary wines.
'Chateau Bleu', too, has won many prizes; not least for its taste, and its lingering afterburn.

'Old Smokey, 1968' has been compared favourably to a Welsh claret, whilst the Australian wino society thouroughly recommends a 1970 'Coq du Rod Laver', which, believe me, has a kick on it like a mule: 8 bottles of this, and you're really finished -- at the opening of the Sydney Bridge Club, they were fishing them out of the main sewers every half an hour.

Of the sparkling wines, the most famous is 'Perth Pink'. This is a bottle with a message in, and the message is BEWARE!. This is not a wine for drinking -- this is a wine for laying down and avoiding.

Another good fighting wine is 'Melbourne Old-and-Yellow', which is particularly heavy, and should be used only for hand-to-hand combat.

Quite the reverse is true of 'Chateau Chunder', which is an Appalachian controle, specially grown for those keen on regurgitation -- a fine wine which really opens up the sluices at both ends.

Real emetic fans will also go for a 'Hobart Muddy', and a prize winning 'Cuiver Reserve Chateau Bottled Nuit San Wogga Wogga', which has a bouquet like an aborigine's armpit.

This post contains a Racist assumption. If you know anything about Australian Indigenous women you'd be in there licking armpits like crazy. Then you just have to lie back ... it's dreamtime!

I named one of my dawgs, of a female, sheila. She just acted that way. I called her "sheiler".

Isn't it short for shillelagh? I dn't know how it's spelled.
