Aussies on the board?

Posted: 5/28/05 at 2:39am

Just wondering how many Australians visit this site. The tally to date is six.
Alterego (me, from Melbourne)
Scotty (Melbourne)
Mother Cabrini (Melbourne)
Falsettoland(Melbourne)
Wildcat (Sydney)
Parradox_Error (Brisbane)

...anyone else? Stand up and be counted!(Australians abroad can be included).

This is becoming quite a role call. Far more than I thought, we almost qualify for a group discount airfare to New York!

they had those on the beds when i was in Norway too. Loved them. And Norwegians or Aussies under them a big plus!

by the way, unless they are assuming the character of an Australian, it's "roll call"...the other spelling is so much more theatrical!

I'm not Australian, but many Americans ask me if I am, which I find odd.

What we call a 'doona' you might call a 'duvet' . Convinceme2 we'll make you an honourary Australian, if you continue to wear that shirt!

And Rachel is the nicest girl in the world! We did THE SISTERS ROSENSWEIG together and one night after the show she got all dressed up to attend the opening of a little movie she'd made called MURIEL'S WEDDING....

Speaking of famous Aussies, did you see Miguel Ayesa...star of the West End WE WILL ROCK YOU...is the only Aussie alongside 11 Americans and 3 Canadians in the new reality TV series "INXS", attempting to replace the late Michael Hutchence as lead singer with the group?

Wow! I dont know what's worse? The fact that they kept the band going (Terrance Trent, John Stevens). Or the fact they are using reality TV to exploit this fact!?
