Tips about Australia

 

  Australians speak English, not Australian

 

  OK Mate - best you get used to people calling you "Mate", Mate.

 

  "G'Day Mate" is not a swear word, It is the same as "How are you".

 

  Throw another shrimp on the barbie is the best Aussie tradition.

 

  Sydney is not the Capital city of Australia, Mate !

 

  Try some vegemite, but remember put it on thick, really thick - you'll love it!

 

  Emu - say it E-Mew not E-Moo.

 

  Cherry Coke and Root Beer are not very popular here, try VB !

 

  Fast Food Etiquette: Australian's say "Take Away thanks Mate".

 

  "Well Bugger Me" is not an invitation - Just an expression of bewilderment!

 

  To be an Australian you have to:

     Play Didgeridoo;

     Throw and Catch the Boomerang;

     Crack a Whip ;
