You are full of it. Thunderheadgrey Arse is just how we say it. but what really -blam!-s me is when Australians spell things the American way for example Jail thats spelt Gaol in Australia but Australians even the newspaper spell it JAIL
Yes I know you say ass as arse in Australia (and other palces). I prefer the word arse myself. Yet in America we only get new words every 10 years, and usually this coincides with massive sociological changes in language and in culture- so my statements are almost purely for the Amerika. If you really do use arse as in "what a sweet arse, mah boomerang ain't bent no more" well that's all fine and good. I can't stop laughing thinking about it, but it is not wrong to be different. I'm just not used to it. Now let's hold hands and sing "Kum-bi-ya"
I'm sorry our Jail's have spoiled your Gaol's. Actually I think Gaol is cool.
