Legless Sailor Promoted

What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
Early in the morning

Shave him in the belly with a rusty razor
Shave him in the belly with a rusty razor
Shave him in the belly with a rusty razor
Early in the morning

So go the lyrics of an old song. In Australia, however, a different fate awaits the drunken sailor – they promote him !!!

Aussies hold Teddy Bear Hostage

by duncanr

A stuffed teddy bear sent from the UK to a childhood friend in Australia has been denied entry into the country – in case it was carrying diseases or exotic pests into the country

To add insult to injury, Australian officials are demanding a ransom for his release – asking Caroline Rothwell to cough up $41 before they will deport the bear back to the UK

Free the Stoke Teddy !!!

Cannibalism in Australia?

by NobblySan

Strewth!

This is cannibalism brought bang up to date…. Jamie Oliver style.

Take one freshly peeled organic missionary, give him a bit of a bashing in the old pestle and mortar, and whop him in the pot.

Then season well.

Britney Better Dumb !!!

by duncanr

Britney Spears Australian tour is not going well.

Several punters who had paid $200 a ticket walked out of her concert in Perth after only 3 songs – pissed off that she was miming (or ‘lip-synching’ as the cool dudes prefer to call it) rather than singing.

They had paid a lot of money to see her perform live and felt they had been ripped off when she mimed her songs.

Trust me folks, you had a lucky escape. You’re better off if she mimes. Don’t believe me? Listen for yourself. This is what is picked up by her microphone while she’s performing

Some different sausages

Australian police have arrested a man caught trying to steal sausages from a shop – by stuffing them down his trousers.

The 38 yr old man is due to appear in Innisfail Magistrates’ Court on a theft charge Nov. 30.

The sausages were recovered but have not been offered for resale to the public

Snow Ho White

by duncanr

Tsk, Tsk, those naughty Aussies have done it again.

First they upset the Americans by taking the piss out of Michael Jackson and his brothers in a TV show where the impersonators painted their faces black.

Now they’ve gone and upset Walt Disney.

An advertising company tasked with the charge of convincing Aussie drinkers that Jamieson’s Raspberry Ale was anything but sweet came up with the idea of reinterpreting Snow White’s relationship with the Dwarves.

They replaced Sleepy, Happy, and Doc with Filthy, Smarmy, and Randy and showed a semi-naked Snow(‘Ho’) White in bed with the 7 dwarves – smoking a (‘post-coital’ ?) fag

The Disney Corporation, however, are reported to be none too ‘Happy’ with the campaign. In fact, one might go so far as to say they are downright ‘Grumpy’ !!!

Anyone for a nut roast?

by NobblySan

Strewth, these Aussies, eh?

Sometimes you can take this Barbeque culture a little too far.

Have a read at this, then wipe the tears from your eyes.

That’ll be tears of anguish from the blokes, and tears of mirth from the women.

No Waltzing Matilda

Julia Gillard

Julia Gillard

Historically the dumping ground for prisoners, Australia’s acting Prime Minister Julia Gillard has said – no more!

Australia will not take in any prisoners being held by the USA at Guantanamo Bay.

This decision was conveyed to the American Government yesterday.

It is the second time Australia has rejected an approach by the Americans for the country to accept inmates from Guantanamo Bay.

‘Stiff Measures’ called for

by noseycow

An Australian holiday resort is planning a ’Nude anything goes’ party to help combat economic flaccidity.

They hope to perk up tourism figures with a month of long hard partying.

The resorts entertainment team

News of the event has rubbed Church Ministers up the wrong way, and they have lost no time in going down on the plan. The resort managers, however are standing firm, and have fleshed out a veritable orgy of exciting events for next March, in anticipation of record numbers of tourists coming.

Rumour has it that a certain bubbly Aussie, champagne sipping, cafe customer, is tickled pink by the idea and had a, conveniently placed,  hole in her diary well and truley filled.
