Corona should be translated to Crown for the oz market.

cannelloni should be rebadged as open-ended sauce pasties

Car parking in suburban streets.

Between my and my neighbour's driveway there is room for 2 cars.

However, so many times a single car (often a small car) will park right in the middle, so noone can park behind or in front.

Selfish pricks. Gives me the *smile*.

That's pretty much anywhere that theres no marked parking. I went to the hospital the other day and had to park a mile away and as I'm walking back to the hospital I see dozens of cars so badly parked. Another dozen cars could have parked along there if people would just be sensible about parking ie don't leave half a car space between you and the car in front!

I'll add the idiots who park 50cm horizontally away from a kerb, those who park where the S sign for 'No Parking' shows and those who park on a nature strip (disallowed nowadays)

I'm in Cairns each year for a couple of weeks and everyone drinks XXXX Gold. You would get too sloshed on heavy beer.

Do you know that Corona also means any crown-like appendage of a plant or animal. Maybe the cat's p!ss translation isn't too far away from the truth after all ;D

Barman, I'll have 1 crown-like appendage of a plant or animal please, hold the lemon

People who will stand outside an office door and wait, while two people are already in discussion instead of coming back later. Which awkwardly ends the conversation to address the uncomfortable feeling of someone watching you talk.

Hate it.

The way those lefty political correctness PC brigade gone mad feel-good bleeding heart latte-sipping charrdonnay socialist newsreaders on SBS and the ABC say Medicans san Frontiers. This is an English speaking country, it is Doctors Without Borders. Why stop at Medicin San Frontiers? Why not refer to every foreign organisation in local language and accent? Why single out this one frog mob? Do you reckon, if there was a bushfire in the Riverina that some French newsreader would say 'Wagga Wagga Rural Fire Service' in English and a thick Aussie accent? No. Ridiculous.

I'm happy to use the French term "en suite". If I had to say I was going to use "the bathroom immediately adjoining the bedroom and forming part of the same set of rooms" I mightn't quite make it in time.
