I usually introduce myself as a Pommie Bastard - should I have offended myself?

I could be offended on your behalf if you like, Wol.... for a price.

if the Tooheys ad is as successful as the 'Where the bloody hell are you' ad, it will soon be pulled for losing money.

(apparently this year tourist numbers are down, so the WTBHAY ad was blamed).

I think it is a wierd thing to put in a ad, but there again I am not a fan of many Ozzie ads, the 'shouty' ones in particular annoy me! :rolleyes:

Hmmm, let me think. How about $20 to be mildly offended, going up to $100 for totally offended.

Just a thought, but does the term POM relate to the Scots, Welsh and Irish, or just the English?
I know there are conflicting views of what POM stands for, but if it is taken as Prisoner of Mother England, then presumably it will not include those from the Celtic nations.
Any comments...
Cheers, Paul

On the matter of the advertisment in question - the only reason a glass of Tooheys New is a Poms worst nightmare is because is so f***ing horrible!

:D I thought that too! Why is the beer over here so sh*te? Aussie beer is gnat's p*ss. You're alright if you like lager. And have you tasted the Guiness over here? It's like they've made it with ditch-water. Thank the baby Jesus for International Beer shop. And thank all the angels that it's down the road in West Leederville!
