    Noted with interest judge stated time regarding holiday and that the accused wasn't in custody. Yes, she seems to realise how dangerous he can be. A jail sentence definite then?

    True, one definition of a holiday is time off work.

    Please stand for the national anthem of Australia....

    God save your gracious Queen
    Long live your noble Queen
    God save your Queen

    Send her victorious
    Happy and glorious
    Long to reign over you
    God save your Queen

    ;-)

    I'm not sure what this means as a) I'm english and b) are you saying that's what Aussies sing ie. YOUR queen, not theirs? If so are you implying that Aussies don't want the queen? Cos I'm not sure that is true if I'm honest. And that certainly doesn't apply to me (see a)

    sorry to over analyse as I know you're kidding but I'm curious what your angle is!

    Ha ha sorry old boy. I think I knew you were English and it was just a little joke, hence the wink smiley.

    What I wrote above is actually among the repertoire of songs sung by England's Barmy Army at cricket matches against Australia. As with a lot of them, they're designed to wind the Aussies up, but all in good humour.

    And of course the best the Aussies can come up with in return is

    Aussie, Aussie, Aussie
    Oi Oi Oi

    Anyway, sorry to have gone slightly off topic. :blush:

    ah right, and you're dead right about the lack of Aussie chants!
