Or not say anything, look him up and down, stop at the box area, pull a face and then walk off howling with laughter...

Make it just louder than a whisper, in a deep methodical tone and dont avert his gaze for a second. Works every time

I bet you are going to enjoy your last year in OZ too!!
I might pick up some tips and do the same!
It is in reverse where I work as 2 English women have been brought in as management, they are quickly changing things around and having new systems put in place. The kiwis are not that quick at understanding the methods.
One turned to me and said (forgetting I was a Pom) " These bloody Poms coming in and changing our system, wish they'd bugger off back" Lol
then she looked up at me and her face was a picture, she had completely forgot I was a Pom too.
Priceless.

You LOVE slating Kiwis and NZ so much, I'm sure you will do well in OZ. They'll probably even make you an honurary Aussie...once they forget you're a Pom!

How funny.

I best stay out of this one. Whilst i am the pom in our family, my husband is a Kiwi. I'm sure he will be along shortly.
He's none too keen on his homeland these days though.

I have to say that if I had my own penis, the last place I would want to insert it, is somebody's rectum.

There is no way I would ever have that, ever - my god surely having anal sex too often can leave you with a sphincter like a clowns pocket.

Neither do I, its awfully dirty up there isn't it.

For a lady, it is most unhygienic having the 'old car parked in poo bay'.

But now i know i will be leaving to return to UK, i have decided enough is enough and i am going to fight back and give them as good as they give me.

As you can imagine the pommie jibes are rife and a daily source of amusement to several colleagues. One Greek Australian in particular feels the need to remind me of my pommie failings several times a week. All in jest of course!
Today, we had a new pommie guy start working with us. I hadnt met him yet and the Greek guy pointed out to me that he was ok but too "pommie" for his liking

Soooooo.... i asked what he meant by this and he explained that he was a stereotypical pom.
I said (in front of an office full of blokes)

"Are you a stereotypical Greek bloke? I hear they like having sex up the back passage"

The entire office descended into shocked hysterical laughter and i left feeling 10ft tall

I am going to enjoy my final year in Aus
You may find that your work mates may consider you less of a pommie and more of an ozzie after this incident. Maybe you have been here too long and are turning Ozzie!

I think everyone forgets the true decendants of OZ.
Infact the Aussies are the "real" pommies.
