nico_collard Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 Lol, how cute is this: I assume everyone already knew that kangaroo's play drums? Awwww!!! How adorable!!! That's actually really cool. America should have done that, instead of having 50 little stars. But then a 50 point star would be impossible.... What do you do on Australia day? Well... at 8:30am I'm going to be hefting around a big drum and wearing a kilt... the pipe band is playing here... Then in the afternoon we're going to Manildra (village of 500) and we're going to their celebration at the pool... And may or may not be competing in the Sutton family cup (swimming relay - must be all relatives... and it was named after my grandmothers family) Can't speak for the others of couse... Real name Barry Humphries. He's a comedian and he does a load of characters.. Fantastic Guy.. He's also in the Movie Shock Treatment. Barnsey Farnsy Molly Meldrum OOOOOH Yes!!! Shock Treatment!!! Hoopla Denton! Gotta love Farnsey and Barnesy! And Molly too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah_loves_mika Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I wish i lived in Australia! We nearly moved there 3 years back, in fact we still have the Visas, but they run out soon.
