I have an interesting question about Australia (language)
The other day I was watching 'neighbours' (I only watch it for Sky Mangell....anyway)
What I would like to know is...what does 'spunk' mean in Oz? A woman in the soap described Karl kennedy as 'spunk material'. I was LMAO...over here (London) spunk means ejaculation!
Can one of you guys enlighten a rather confused Lethal :)

This means he is an atractive sexy lookin guy... in basic terms, but i can see how diffrent the terms can mean :)
I hope that clears up the mess :P

I heard neighbours is massive in Oz. Like a prime time soap eg. Eastenders.
Over here, the two showings of Neighbours are usually finished before i get back from work. Thank goodness for Windows MCE :)

what a bloody nail bighter. all credit to queensland though for the "never die" mentally. they nearly got us in the end.
however with that, GO THE MIGHTY BLUES!!!!
P.S, it's a good week for sport this week in aus, State of Origin, followed by Australia vs Greece and to cap it off, Knights vs Dragons on friday. Sheer briliant.
