web-goddess: Aussie Slang

Friday, January 30, 2004

The Sydney Morning Herald today provided a small glossary of Aussie slang. Of those, I've really only ever heard "like a shag on a rock", "flat out like a lizard drinking", and "put the hard word on" before.

Bah! All these Aussie slang lists read like conversation in a remote outback town in 1913. I think it's all a bit romanticised. Though I must admit I use the 'Arthur or Martha' one a fair bit :)

This is where my weblog goes to die. Every post has a permanent home, so this is where you should link if you're so inclined.

"RunningBlog" refers to posts related to running that are cross-posted over at geekgirlrunner.

"Moblog" refers to posts and images posted directly from my mobile phone.

"PW Blog" refers to posts recovered from my very first weblog, which dealt with news related to my college dorm.
