thumbs up for aussies

[Mr. Broken]

Ive read FR, and now I find myself stuck, frustrated, and hungry for forbidden knowledge. The only thing Ive learned from FR, or ROE is that the last chronicles move at a much swifter pace, almost too fast to learn anything before your attention is drawn elsewhere. Oh well , with only 2 more years to wait for the next installment I say "Commence de re-read."

Boy, I'm sure glad I checked in....the information about Fosters, Ning-nongs and dags was absolutely priceless.

....hehe, glad to be here.

[caamora]

Oh...um...yeah...the important stuff is on page one and then it just deteriorated into prattle

But everyone should have a crash course in Australian-isms...and everyone should be warned off Fosters!

Caam, there's details here (it's in a different forum...confusing, I know).

Come on now lets face it: We're all a little strange (or maybe that's just me Laughing )

People, we are spending the precious hours of our lives on the internet exchanging tidbits about a fantasy book series. I believe that makes this the world's most pathetic geek-o-rama.

The few, the proud!!

All Hail the geeks who would spend their lives discussing such noble scribes on the internet no less! I think we rock.

G'day all,

Just joined the forum and noticed this thread on Aussies...Couldn't resist spinnin' a yarn in good old Aussie slang. So here goes...

G'day all you drongos, how're ya garn? Glad to be part of this beaut little forum. It's a bloody rippa! Can't flap me gums for too long though. Gotta hit the frog 'n toad & head down to Bluey's place for a Barbie this arvo. He's cookin up a coupla dozen snags that the butcher threw his way. I'll pick up a slab of coldies from the bottle-o on the way.
I might sneak a butchers hook at Bluey's missus tonite too. Fair Dinkum, she's a top sort that bird.
Righto, catch ya later. Hooroo.

There you go. I could have kept going for ages. But that'll do for now. I have to travel over to the USA in a few months for work. I think I may need to do a bit of translating while I'm there. Should be a lot of fun. Good to know we have quite a few Aussies here on the Watch.

See ya,

Beetle

Thanks for that, Beetle! Very enjoyable. I have always wanted to visit Australia but it is very far and I have not won the Lottery yet. I was an absolute Aussie Rules Football addict in the 80's (Essendon ruled) and would love to see a game in person some day.

Kim, having just finished FR not too sure if its the best one yet - feels too 'unfinished'. I think I'm gonna have to reread from book one through to the end to settle my thinking. Its been a while since I read the 1st chronicles and the memory is a bit fuzzy

[Seareach]

Don't ya worry, Beetle. Them Americans understand us for the most part...and if they have no idea what you're on about they just tend to smile politely anyway. At least that was my experience...however I was hanging out with the KW crew and they were probably just being nice to me.
