Hehe....
As far as I know that was all me. Been using it for years. Haven't ever seen it or heard it from anyone else. But who knows.
Along the lines of a well known Scottish toast:
HERE'S TAE US; WHA'S LIKE US? GEY FEW, AND THEY'RE A' DEID'.
Translation for the Sassenachs. "Here's to us; who is as good as us? Damn few, and they're all dead"....

China they are great words and Bloody TRUE
I am saddened some what when I see and hear "non-Australian" words or actions being exhibited about. We are not a clone of some other country. We should be proud of our "Australian-ness" and not adopt the quirks of others. We have proved on the world stage that we are dependable, reliable and are one of the first responders to any nation who is in need.
We should be unashamably proud of who we are and not let short term gain be our goal but lay down long term plans for our future
I will now get off my soap box and take shelter in the shadeJust do it!
Kind regards Rod

With our relatively small population we punch well above our weight in so many fields. We should be proud of who we are and what we achieve.Tom
