Skani 4,866 Posted January 25, 2013 I would rather go with the classic Mario Lanza tune drink drink drink:cool: We have great sausages made here in Hobart by a joint called the Wursthaus: they'd go well with your Mario Lanza song. :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perthbum 5,693 Posted January 25, 2013 So are you going to celebrate the invasion of their country? Yes , I always raise a glass to the aboriginal people on invasion day, the true Australians. Drinking rum before 11am does not make you an alcoholic, it makes you pirate.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perthbum 5,693 Posted January 25, 2013 You forgot a bit Andy:So are you going to celebrate the invasion of their country by your ancestors, Perthbum? The English did invade and that is why Australia is a country with the majority being English and the only true Australians being the aboriginal people.

dmjg 4,061 Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) In fact, only someone who has been born in Australia or completed citizenship since 1st January 1901 can be an Australian. As Skani alluded, a nation called Australia did not exist before this date. Edited January 25, 2013 by dmjg Got it homewardbound! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you are saying the aboriginal people are not even Australian now. Drinking rum before 11am does not make you an alcoholic, it makes you pirate.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmjg 4,061 Posted January 25, 2013 So you are saying the aboriginal people are not even Australian now. Due to you not being able to refute facts, are you trying to gain a bit of a following with another strawman argument? Reread my post, if you cannot understand any of the words in it look them up in a dictionary. Most are not more than 2 syllables long. Then come back when you have something intelligent to say.

whoiam 559 Posted January 25, 2013 I think it will be great to join in the celebrations regardless of nationality, even if its a private barbie - just for the fun of it. Just hope the rain does not drown everything this year. Don't judge even if you've walked a mile in their shoes. They haven't walked in yours yet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
