Re: Quorn is coming to Australia - WOO HOO!!!

Re: Melbourne Second Best City...........

Um, no it's showing cities with high populations of single women and gay men - doesn't it make sense to move to such a place if you are a red blooded young man?

Re: Sydney and Melbourne in top 20 best cities in the world

Melbourne usually ranks in the top 5 for this survey - it's sad to see it plummet so far down, not surprising, just sad.

Re: Where did the Aussie accent come from?

That may be so but you should bear in mind that 97% of S.Africans don't speak english as a first language. Perhaps you can explain to me why so many poms just sound like they don't speak english as a...
