You don't see the forks much any more. It's all the bird and that's just not right.

Bring back the forks.

I agree, the other thing is the hand signals, mate what happened to the "old thumbs up" symbol of Aussie spirit rather than this " I'm. an Hawaiian waterman hand signal" that seen in lots of photos....FFS ....

Yeah, don't even get me started on all these fancy "handshakes"

What signal is that? What does it look like?

Shaka

That's the heavy metal one too. I don't care for it. Thumbs up is good enough.

I like the old cobbadiggapal

I had a mate who spent five years in England, landed in Perth and hopped in a taxi and the driver said "gdaymateowyagoinawwwrrroight?"

It took him six weeks to get his Aussie back.

A few blokes I know used cood (sp?), which they told me was Nyungar for mate. "Gday cood" became a popular greeting.

Me ol' China...nice one Tux

Why don't Kiwi's take their girl friends to the cricket? They are scared they will eat the grass
