I'm proud to report I can now safely tell the difference between a Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish or Danish accent. They all sound like drunk baboons with nickels in their mouths, but there is an actual difference, albeit a subtle one. In fact, Swedish starts to sound like French if you concentrate and Norwegian is almost singing. Danish is the toughest of the bunch and is the equivalent of the "French Canadian" farmer accent. They get a lot of slack for it up here, but don't seem to mind being the runts of the language litter. In fact, world wide, I challenge you to find an uglier, less comprehensible tongue.
Conversely, most people I meet here think I'm from Australia. They can tell I'm not British and there's something not American about me, so they go with Australian. Gotta admire their incredibly flawed logic. In the past I used to correct them, but I've learned, why bother?

Throw another shrimp on the barbie mate.
Remeber how stinky Barnzey's feet used to be when we threw down cards at Frederick? They've got a lot better though. Barnsey has become quite a dapper young man indeed. He looks very suave in his striped shirts. On another note - I want Pump Head tp have more birthday party stories. That was puke funny.
Yes it is weird....I do not really do anything different and yet my feet are many times less stinky. It must be all the beer I have started drinking since those halycon days.
