    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Didn't either - had to check the Maquarie dictionary of Australian colloquial language. it means that the uncle is a horse breeder providing for artificial insemination.

    SWMBO just informed me that she used this in one of her post-grad uni classes (English teaching) last week. She wrote it up on the whiteboard and got only 3 laughs, 11 "we are not amused"s and 1 "aren't you just about to become a mother!!?!?"

    And that's why I love her
