Well, it's happened. It's starting to settle in. The sunny days are coming and I'm a-ready for `em. I still get relatively random friend requests and sorry but I don't take requests from someone who hasn't made at least a few attempts to chit and/or chat with me or relate on some levels, y'know?
With 59 days, 9 hours, and 6 minutes until my plane takes off on the start of my trip to Australia I thought I'd start with some 'Aussie Slang' stuff posted on various websites to set up for success (and mayhaps get a pile of these shot down by actual Aussies).
Today is some of the letter A.
Ace! : Excellent! Very good!
Aerial pingpong : Australian Rules football
Amber fluid : beer
Ambo : ambulance, ambulance driver
Ankle biter : small child
Apples, she'll be : It'll be all right
Arvo : afternoon
Aussie (pron. Ozzie) : Australian
Aussie salute : brushing away flies with the hand
Avos : avocados

However only non-fans of AFL will call it aerial ping pong
