I'm so sorry about that ;D

I'm a New Zealander and I'm glad!!! Seriously though I love Australians I spent two years in Sydney and loved my time there.
I'm also part Tasmanian thanks to my Mums family but I don't usually shout that out ;)

Yes, The Seekers got it right.  O0 O0 O0
For all those who don't know, Tasmania is the bit that fell off the bottom.  :embarrassed:

ARTY, That was both brilliant & beautiful, I can clearly see why Australians are a proud people & welcomed with open arms where ever they go. I for one have a great admiration for your country & your people. Mick B.

Hi all, I thought the song rather touching, my son now has Australian citizenship, he can be found in Sydney, used to be a keen modeller but OZ being what it is has now gone full size.  Has a nice waterside apartment with yacht moored off his jetty.
It's all right for some!

Hi Frankie, having spent some time in your county I can speak from experience & confirm that the people there are both friendly & helpfull. I enjoyed my time there with the RAF, those were very good times, Mick B.

I was sent this version last year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGoNbrODq8U

When I have been to Australia, I have always found the people very friendly I wish I had gone out there when I was younger.
