<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 390282, member: 2844&quot;]I think most of the &#039;Aussie&#039; phrases on that site are pretty general, and to be found in Britain as well. I know English from both parts of the world pretty well, through growing up in Oz and British relatives (and watching too much BBC).</p><p><br /></p><p>I used to love the phrases Barry Humphries used. Most came from another London based Aussie, forgot who. Since they both knew colloquial British English as well as Strine (Austalian) and knew which was which, they could use the genuine Aussie expressions. And make some up along the way. </p><p>We still use some of the phrases from Humphries&#039; Barry Mackenzie books about an Aussie expat in London.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
