the nothing ,anything ,everything thread

[opmania]

This is a thread with no particular

Topic so no one can be off topic 🙂

So if anyone out there has something 

To say about anything you like now

Is your chance

Keep it clean 

And be nice 

See how long that lasts

Can we keep politics and religion out 

Of the conversation

Love it Stawks ... what an Aussie treat that is .....

The local ABC radio station recorded this a couple of years ago using suggestions from listeners.

It is a bit hard to figure out what a couple of them are so here is the list of 'gifts':

A green frog in the lavatory is the first line

2 matching thongs

3 yapping dogs

4 frisky frillnecks

5 honking geese

6 sweaty singlets

7 scrub fowl screaming

8 barra biting

9 trotting tata's

10 crocs a jumping

11 mangos ripening

12 sunburnt tourists

Yep, we're a bit weird up here!😁

Modem problems coupled with ill health make for a *bleep* of a week.

I'm okay, just a bit tired.

Sorry to hear about your **bleep** of a week, Ecar.

Hope things are improving for you   

Are you this tired?

Umm... I got the flies part, being a southerner? And the ripper part? I'm lost on the rest, lol!

Budding zoologist in the house says none of these can kill me, unlike many of your critters, but what's a gum tree?

A gum tree is an Australian Eucalyptus tree.  They have them in California too.

But....show your budding zoologist these clips - don't be fooled.  Kangaroos can get to 8 feet tall, 200 lbs, and rip your innards out with those back clawed feet.  They're not always 'cute'

He's 15, he'll like these, thank you! I've seen Eucalyptus trees in Southern Florida and Texas  too, I think they are being grown to produce paper, and as an alternative crop to the normal crops. They smell nice, and they're great for shade.
