Australia Day

Okay, so for everyone that isn't an Aussie, it's Australia Day on Thursday 26th January! Soooo I came across this little number that probably only the Australian's will understand It's cute and annoying!!! My husband is so happy as this is his 2nd Australia Day as an Australian citizen He's getting the BBQ ready and getting his beer and will probably spend the day watching Crocodile Dundee and other Australian movies! I, unfortunately, have to work... but he is going to get his free sausage sandwich at the local Australia Day sausage sizzle LOL. What is everyone else up to?

Whats Ausralia day?

It is when the First Fleet arrived in Australia in 1788. I guess England have St George's Day and America has Independence Day etc... Public Holiday

Where is hubby originally from?

Ah yes, although I think we celebrate st Paddys day more than st Georges! Go figure Xx

He's a UK boy. Born and bred in Plymouth, Devon.

We even celebrate St Patrick's Day... not a public holiday, but great excuse for a bit of drinking

This is just an absolute joke.....

Aussie flag bearers are racists?

happy australia day,




they say that about people flying the english flag

Right... so my husband cooked a massive lamb on the webber with a vegemite marinade (which was yummy), potato salad and green sale... and beer! I was correct, Crocodile Dundee is currently on the television screen. My husband LOVES it.

Not sure about "Bogan Love", but Croc Dundee on TV over here and hubby has gone and picked another DVD to watch
We now live in Perth and have pi**ed ourselves laughing all week when seeing a car with "Aussie flags" and said "Racist". What a joke!!!

Happy australia day everyone

A bit late now but Happy Australia day. I see it is very controversial this year.

It was a nice day. Had the Aussie flag on the roof of my car and a BBQ with family for dinner

so shattered I missed Australia day, every year we have a big party any where with water and a radio and we fly the flag and are not racist!
Just a great day for a BBQ, drinks and counting down the hottest 100 songs on triple J.
first one I've missed in like 8 years because I was on the plane flying home. got in at 11pm Australia day so still got a 'happy australia day' from the customs officer hehe
