And even if Boxhead had nothing useful to add but a number I feel compelled to agree with whatever he agreed with.

I'm sure the chat would flow free-er if someone shouted a carton and BBQ.

I still agree.............
























But to add something useful, I will say, most Aussies do love a chat, and a beer with a Chat is even beter.

As we live in such a diverse sparse land, but all share common ideals and nationallity beliefs we appreciate the chance to have a modern medium to share ideas and seek advice.
Even if we never meet other Aussies that we chat with online it is easy to picture them in our minds and know that we could have a beer and they would still be the same person we hoped they would be.
They often never look like we would picture them in the minds eye tho, but we live with that and crack another can.

I suppose you won't disagree with that Boxy?

He is such and agreeable bloke, thats a good thing isnt it

'Lucky you cant see me sitting here in my silk nightie and unshaven legs '

Nothing at all wrong with that, but if you have a beard to go with it then I am shattered.
BTW, try waxing, it might bring a few tears but worth the effort.
