Personally, I really like Australia - I spent nine weeks there last year, from Sydney up to Brisbane (unfortunately, most of that was for work).<BR/><BR/>I'm saddened to see that some Australians, like some of my fellow countrymen in the States, are a bit prejudiced and uncouth.Kirk Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714724758028532093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11610993.post-54268195555737588702007-04-10T11:41:00.000+10:002007-04-10T11:41:00.000+10:00Another reply to The Nth American sicko's, which w...Another reply to The Nth American sicko's, which was also used on tshsmom's blog, (probably deleted by now) Vest said... <BR/>tshsmom: Back to your silly tricks again are you?<BR/>your 6 x 50 line; filthy inane comments were picked up by my ten year old granddaughter while I was at breakfast.
