Goulburn set to become a bigger hole.

Ahh nothing like trading barbs with our nz cousins…

A Phar Lap-Guitar maybe.. eh eh…

What about a camel?????

No, South Islander; but I won’t challenge you to a ‘wee’ fight because you thought I was a North Islander! 😉 Salmon = Rakaia, Trout = somewhere down the bottom of Otago(?). Doesn’t Gore have a guitar?

Phar Lap’s heart is in the National Museum in Canberra, his Hide is in the Victoria Museum in Melbourne, and his skeleton is in Wellington.

Ahh, I see you’re a north islander, Paeroa, Taupo and Eketahuna 🙂

There’s also the big prawn (Gore?) the mussels on the roof (Kaikoura) and Pharlaps Heart (Wgtn Museum).

OK, Pharlaps heart isn’t a statue, but it’s fucking huge…

The sheep jokes don’t bother me. What does bother me is the way some Aussies suddenly have to tell you ALL the sheep jokes they’ve ever heard within 10 minutes of finding out you’re Kiwi – even though you’ve already heard them all 200 million times! Bloody under-arm bowling bastards! 🙂

Anyway, as Mael said Australia is the country that has a massive statue of a sheep: I ain’t never seen one in NZ. NZ has statues of much more important things like L & P bottles, Trout, Salmon, and Kiwis.

Lol, you chaps are funny…

Hate to plug the steriotype, but bloody typical of an Aussie to agree to the venue and then chime in with ‘your shout first’…

Yes I’ll buy you a beer, but (in your slang) it’s a boomerang, you have to buy the next.

My comment about the Durham isn’t an offer of violence. I see how it can be taken that way, however it’s actually an offer to come and say it face to face (violence comes later).

I have found with personal experience, people are substantially more polite about Kiwi’s in my presence than they would usually be, I’m not countryproud, however if all an aussie can come up with is a sheep joke, then perhaps it’s time to stop the one functional brain cell in their head bowling overs between the ears and coming up with something new.

Fuck! it’s not that hard, we’ve got the ugliest prime minister in the world for goodness sakes, and what do I hear? fucking stupid sheep jokes.

A peculiarity of accents is the Jimmy Barnes lyrical mondegreen, to a New Zealander is “Cheap wine and a three legged goat”, which is where I think the whole sheep joke thing came about in the first place.

I could say more sheep jokes about Australians than you lot could combine to rustle up, however I’d probably begin to be deleted, they’re that offensive… (They would scare aussies because they’re true, it’s like watching Deliverance – scary because the problem is in your backyard)

Now all that stated, I don’t mind a sheep joke, because internally I’m laughing my ass off at the teller of the joke, but really, what the hell does a sheep in Golburn have to do with firecrackers and prisoners ?

I think the real joke is that Australians built a statue of a sheep, what is that all about ?

Statue to your sex god ?

I will remind you JB that velcro gloves and gumboots are an Australian invention. I will say no more…

Dirty minded little greebly individuals.

Durham at 6:30 Maelinar – btw you’re buying.

Seriously – you’re buying – have a pint of draught ready for me and I’ll take that as your apology big fella.

Look forward to it.

Is there precedence for an internet pissing contest to actually lead to a serious physical brawl. This could be not only an RA but a world first. How exciting.

If I was you Johnboy, I wouldn’t go near the Durham for a couple of months! 🙂

I’ve done some research and it would seem the town of Levin is the closest kiwi equivalent to Goulburn. So they need the Giant Kangaroo with the Giant Aussie standing behind to achieve equivalence.

And will we care? Not a bit!

Now Maelinar, just because the man with a sense of humour faliure can beat people up at the durham seems to be neither necessary nor sufficient proof he’s never owned velcro gloves and oversized wellies.

Mr Evil, I won’t take that bet.

But if Helen is the ugliest then Macedonia must have the best looking PM

Ok, so she’s only deputy PM but it’s close enough.
