Having dropped a common Aussie saying (ugly as a hatfull of arseholes) when responding to Indo today.

I lament that this part of Aussie culture is dying with my kids generation. Are we losing our unique bastardised version of the English language.

What’s your favourite sayings? Do you still use them?

A mate tells the story of how a cock teaser caused him to give his jocks a load in the middle of a packed dance floor. 30 years on its still something to laugh at!

Mate of mine on bass there. Played the local on grand final arvo and, at the start of their set, lead singer Norro dropped a salvos bag of thongs at the front of the stage. Double pluggers flying through the air all gig long.

Told them they had Buckleys and they better bring a few slabs from up there.

They wanted full strength.
So, I asked the bloke at the local bottlo if they stocked it.
He had a bit a chuckle and asked me if I wanted to clean my driveway.
In other words, no. ;)

Time to resurrect your thread seeds. This quote of yours has been hanging like a stubborn dag on a flyblown ewe, or the smell when your old man dropped his guts after a night on the turps.

Probably more of an acronym and probably not Aussie but it relates to the feeling you have sitting at your office desk 2 days out from heading off on a surf trip.

As a family we hung around old fishing boats most weekends, my grandfather was a life long fisherman, often id ask my father about the types of motors these old boats had, he’d reply a Yanmar, Cummins, Perkins. etc..
One day I specifically asked about a particular motor in my pops boat, I asked if it was very powerful, his reply was , wouldn’t pull a sailor off ya sister.
Don’t you love the old but direct lingo. AW

I like motors that have more grunt than a pig farm.

Yeah me too.
It was refreshing to hear it today after a mate spotted a Joe Blake near his chariot.
I wonder how it originated?
