Karen and I are getting used to the "figures of speech" that our Aussie friends use. Check this out:
I put my togs on and jumped in the tinnie. The lumpy seas ensured that there might be some drama as I headed for land. I threw in my life jacket so I would not fall off the perch. I reckon I had to get to land or I would dip out. I had to ensure that I had all the bits in my pack. I did remember that I left some stuff in the boot. I hit the skids and turned the tinnie around. I jumped back in the tender and headed for my car and opened the boot. I spewed a bit but my mates yelled at me that I was late so I told them to stick it up their clackers.
Cheers
Bob and Karen
...perfectly clear, right. Back to the pool.
"stick it up their clackers" Hmmm...I think that will catch on here. :)
ReplyDeleteI love it! There are times I know that I might want to say that here.
