Jai Dee Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 From the state where drink driving is considered a sport, comes a true story from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a local neighbourhood tavern. Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles, the man managed to find his car which he fell into. He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night), flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few cm, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left. At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the road. The police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a Breathalyser test. To his amazement the Breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man having consumed alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said "I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the Police station this Breathalyser equipment must be broken." "I doubt it," said the man, "tonight I'm the designated decoy".

Jai Dee Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Sometimes you come across a real gem like this letter to the editor... supposedly in last week's Australian: "The Cole Inquiry has to separate the wheat from the chaff because the AWB couldn't see the wood for the trucking fees."

Artisi Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 An Australian, a Kiwi and South African are in a bar one night having a beer. All of a sudden the South African drinks his beer, throws his glass in the air, pulls out a gun and shoots the glass to pieces. "In Seth Efrika our glasses are so cheap that we don't need to drink from the same one twice," he says. The Kiwi, obviously impressed by this, drinks his beer, throws his glass into the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the glass to pieces. "Wull mate, in Noo Zulland we have so much sand to make the glasses that we don't need to drink out the same glass either," he says The Australian, cool as a Koala, picks up his beer and drinks it, throws his glass in the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the South African and the Kiwi. He turns to the astonished barman and says,"In Strailya mate, we Have so many bloody South Africans and Kiwis that we don't need to drink with the same ones twice."

Axel Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Rules of Etiquette in Aussie land Absolutely splendid collection from Stuart NMI Murdoch. ETIQUETTE IN GENERAL 1. Never take an open stubby to a job interview. 2. Always identify people in your paddocks before shooting at them. 3. It's tacky to take an esky to church. 4. If you have to vacuum the bed, it's time to change the sheets. 5. Even if you're certain you're included in the will, it's rude to take your ute and trailer to the funeral. DINING OUT 1. When decanting wine from the box, tilt the paper cup and pour slowly so as not to bruise the wine. 2. If drinking directly from the bottle, hold it with only one hand. ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME 1. A centrepiece for the table should never be anything prepared by a taxidermist. 2. Don't allow the dog to eat at the table, no matter how good his manners. PERSONAL HYGIENE 1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this should be done in private, using one's OWN ute keys. 2. Even if you live alone, deodorant isn't a waste of money. 3. Extensive use of deodorant can only delay bathing by a few days. DATING 1. Always offer to bait your date's hook - especially on the first date. THEATRE ETIQUETTE 1. Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and picked up after the movie ends. 2. Refrain from yelling abuse at characters on the screen. Tests have proven they can't hear you. WEDDINGS 1. Livestock is a poor choice for a wedding gift. 2. Kissing the bride for more than five seconds may cause a drop in your popularity. (Excessive use of the tongue is also considered out of place) 3. Though uncomfortable, say "yes" to socks and shoes for the occasion. 4. For the groom, at least, rent a tux. A tracksuit with a cummerbund and a clean football jumper can create a tacky appearance. DRIVING ETIQUETTE 1. Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles, even if your gun's loaded and the roo's in your rifle sight. 2. When entering a roundabout, the vehicle with the largest roo bar doesn't always have the right of way. 3. Never tow another car using panty hose and duct tape. 4. When sending your wife down the road with a petrol can, it's impolite to ask her to bring back beer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuiRes Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 This is sadly true! More years ago than I care to remember, anyone arriving by sea into Sydney had to fill our a very long (several pages) and complicated Customs Declaration. It as so complicated that we used to carry Australian Customs Agents on board from the last port to help passengers fill it out correctly. Eventually the Australian Customs agreed that this was not only expensive for them, but unnecessary and introduced a new "Oral Declaration". All you had to do was "Fill out this new form" !!

tuky Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 New Zealand not for sale: eBayFrom: By Paul Colgan May 12, 2006 AN Australian man has failed in his bid to sell New Zealand for a bargain-basement price on eBay. The South Pacific country was described by the eBay man as having "very ordinary weather" and bidding opened at one cent. A generous bid of $3000 had been entered by the time the eBay realised the problem and stepped in to say New Zealand was not for sale, the Associated Press reported. More than 22 bids were received before eBay - which describes itself as selling "mostly household items" - pulled the plug. "Clearly New Zealand is not for sale," eBay Australia spokesman Daniel Feiler was quoted as saying. "It is mostly household items we have for sale, but there are the occasional quirky items put up," Mr Feiler said. We have a look at them and if they are OK we leave them, but if it is something that can't be sold, we take them off." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
