Talking I got the yellow envelope!

Yes I did.

But it wasnt the anything to do with Australia, it was junk mail.

I pretended it was from DIMIA all the same.

I think they should change the colour of the envelopes to confuse people.


We could have for instance:

Pink - that means Jonny boy Howard isnt at all sure about you but if you bribe him with a few beers, you might just get in.

Green - no chance, you're fat, you smell and you have ginger hair. No blueys here thank you.

Purple - Give up now, your agent has only put you through because he feels sorry for you.

Orange - Wicked, you're in, you will be the dogs bollox when it comes to helping Australia and its economy.

Stripey - We are not quite sure of you, but will give you a few months to prove yourself.

Red and black with lacey trim - You naughty girl, of course you are welcome, if not for the porn industry.

(only joking! - one of those days - you know what its like!)

You bugger, Sam - thought you had heard something good then.....


Think DIMIA envelopes should play 'Advance Australia Fair' when you open them..

I've had a couple of letters exactly the same colour as DIMIA use - got soooo excited - thought they had granted my PR - the contents might as well have said.......nah, nah - you'll have to wait a bit longer..

Walla babes, I shall look forward to the feeling when it happens.

It was a wishful thinking post.
