Steak mate, can't beat a good steak pie with mash and gravy xxx Chicken & mushroom next. But I hardly ever eat them as (I am a girl) and they are so bad for you.

Are they called floaters or something over there?

speaking of pies and all things oz, sing the following to the tune of "bitch" by meredith brooks:


Bloke - Chris Franklin

I hate the new age guys
I'm a chauvinist
I live on beer and pies
Tried to tell you,
But you look at me,
like maybe I'm an angel underneath
Haven't brushed me teeth.

Yesterday I lied
But all me mates
gave me a real good alibi
Thanks guys
I really went out drinking,
I told you I was at work
Don't ask me for commitment,
'Cause it's something I will shirk

I'm a bloke,
I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers
I'm a labourer by day,
I piss up all me pay
Watching footy on TV
Just feed me more VB
Just pour my beer,
And get my smokes,
And go away

Or take me as I am
This may mean you'll
have to fetch another can
Rest assured,
That if I start to make you breakfast
I'm going to extremes
but tomorrow I'll get shitfaced,
and today won't mean a thing

I'm a bloke
I'm a yobbo,
and me best mate's name is Robbo
Winfield is me cigarrete
I dress in flanellette
Shearer's singlet that is blue
Throw in a few tattoos,
You know you wouldn't
Want me any other way

When you think
You've got me figured out
The season's already changing

I think it's cool
When I act like a tool
And my mates try to shave me

I'm a bloke,
I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers
I'm a labourer by day,
I piss up all me pay
Watching footy on TV
Just feed me more VB
Just pour my beer,
And get my smokes,
And go away


I'm a bloke
I'm a yobbo,
and me best mate's name is Robbo
Winfield is me cigarrete
I dress in flanellette

Jesters - funny name, serious pies:

Tramcar pies here in Gympie are good but the best have to be Yatler Pies from down your way.
Still don't get the idea of smothering a meat and gravy pie with ketchup though

renth

Don't call it "ketchup" you'll get the piss taken out of you - its' "red sauce"

cresta57

Maybe over in Perth but here on the civilised side of the desert the ockers all ask for ketchup. It could just be one of those colloquial quirks as down in the big smoke it's red sauce
God awful bloody idea though, nearly as bad as the curried veggie pies

renth

Mrs Mac's curry pies are good - "If it's not Mrs. Mac's, take it back!"

Silly ozzies cant read the name on the bottle, it clearly states "tomato ketchup"
Theyve also lost an "a" from weetAbix and a lollie doesnt come on a stick, an ice lollie is called an ice block.

cresta57

Not on Heinz it doesn't it says "Heinz Big Red" and underneath it says "Tomato Sauce"
I'm looking at a bottle now as I pour it onto my bacon buttie Mmmmmmmm.

Luke I Amyofath

Not what my oz bottle says

renth

I've always wondered this.

What is the difference between Heinz Tomato Ketchup and Heinz Big Red Tomato Sauce?

Apparantly.... HEINZ Tomato Ketchup contains more tomatoes and is higher in tomato solids than its sauce counterpart. It is spicier and has that extra bite.

Different recipe and different taste. Ketchup is far nicer.
