Excellent Manfred, that quite a facultative presentation, albeit with a pyrotic tinge , showing the effulgent metaphoric, hyperbolic but sirenic characteristics of the antipodean patois.
I think all would be consentaneous to your didactic afflatus, making us much more sentient of our interlocutional vernacular.

Thanks Bob, Marty .... Nevvie!! Man your collocation is wayyyy too copius for a bloke of my diminutive intellect ... Besides, from where we're sitting "we're" not the antipodes, THEY are ... :D

and you should see him do it on You tube. Mannie had my Mum in stitches listening to and watching him recite this. The facial expressions alone are priceless. Mum said you are a fine stamp of a man Mannie :lol: :lol:

Agree with the rest of the mob - this is a fine piece of work

Cheers

That's another old Aussie saying that I just happened to think of for some reason. :)

There's another that my mother used to use if she thought I looked untidy ( which was often )
" you look like the wreck of the Hesperus " I wonder how widely that was used.
