Oh noze! Lock up your vegemite peeple! The septics are coming.:D

The Colonials are taking over the Colonials?

It's just not cricket! :dead:

I don't get it. And I'm not sure I want to.

EX-Colonials, if you please.

And we're not taking over, we're just making a visit.

A long visit.

A very long visit.

It's only a long term loan...we'll want it back when we can afford it :O:

:yeah:

By that time we'll probably pay you to take it!

Septic: Australian (pronounced Strine), rhyming slang for American. i.e.; Septic Tank = Yank.:03:

Now that's not a very nice thing to call folks who saved you from the Japanese... :DL

:har: Saved? Us? :har: More like invaded. :D

It was coined by as cockney rhyming slang during WWI, I believe because of the perceived similarity between the two objective nouns. i.e.; They are both full of excrement.:D

It was then adopted in Australia during the WWII invasion and shortened to it's more common form over here; Seppo.

Oh your a naughty boy TJ!!:yep: But be careful, we might lose a possible contract! remember we're Down Under, that could mean we're in deep sh!t!:03:

From the sounds of it, you'll be up to your eyeballs in it once we get there. Erm, I mean... once we invade. :D

Well it might seem like that to a country who never won a war on their own. :D

LMAO :rotfl2:

Looks like they've just realised Australia is the biggest Guantamano on Earth :03:

Oh I don't know about that.

They done pretty well against the natives of Tasmania :O:

Oh what the heck. Just glad the previous nightmare is over now. :haha:
