Mike L: I didn't even know "spruiker" was Australian until you said.

I wrote to my sister in England awhile back and told her it was so cold that I had to put a "doona" on my bed. She was confused by that word. Apparently "doona" is Australian too. (It means "duvet"). I was born in England, but I guess I've been in Australia so long I've started to speak the language. I'll be throwing boomerangs and wrestling crocodiles any day now.
Her reviews used to drive me insane when I ran my reviewal site.
