Now that phrase goes down well in casual, laid-back Australia but the rest of the world didn't get it at all. The beaches just 70 metres from where I am (Surfers Paradise) were empty of the usual foreign tourists.

I would invite you but considering my location I could possibly see a few thousand replies to such an invitation. But, heh, you get over here then give us a call and we'll share a beer or two - or three, or four, or .............
