Every time I see or listen to The Seekers it makes me proud to be an Aussie
From their farewell tour
Judith Durham and the Seekers...Time and Again

Jammo who has lived in Australia long enough to be an Aussie, but still claims New Zealand heritage, sent me this Kiwi version of a great joke
Cheers David
Durind a tour of NZ, the Pope took a couple of days off to
visit the ocean for some sightseeing.
He was cruising along the beach at Wanganui in his car,
when there was a frantic commotion just off the shore.

A helpless man wearing a green and gold Aussie rugby
jersey was struggling frantically to free himself, from the
jaws of a 5-metre shark.

As the Pope watched horrified, a Waka cruised up along-side with two men
wearing All Black jerseys.
Rangi quickly threw a harpoon into the shark's side.
Hohepa reached out and pulled the mauled, bleeding
and semi-conscious Aussie from the water.
Then, using long clubs,Rangi and Hohepa killed the shark and hauled it into the boat. Immediately the Pope summoned them to the beach,
'I give you my blessing for your brave actions,' he told them.
'I heard that there was some bitter rivalry between New Zealand and
Australia, but now I have seen with my own eyes that this is
not true.'
Australia, but now I have seen with my own eyes that this is
not true.'
As the Pope drove off, Rangi asked Hohepa 'Who the hell was that, bro?' '
That was the Pope cuz' Hohepa replied.
'He's in direct contact with God bro, and has access to all of God's wisdom.'
'Well' Rangi said, 'he may have access to God's wisdom,
but he don't know bugger all about shark fishing...
Is the bait holding up okay, or do we need to get another Aussie?

Gordon Lightfoot....Early morning rain
who had been a seafaring gentleman all his life,
to bury him at sea when he died.
Of course, in due time, he did pass away and the two kept their promise.
They set off from Clearwater Beach with their uncle all stitched up in a burial bag

After a while Chrisy says, 'Do you think we're out far enough, Barbie?'
Barbie slipped over the side and finding the water only knee deep said,

'Nope, not yet Chrisy'.
So... they row a little farther.

Again Chrisy asks Barbie, 'Do you think we're out far enough now?'
Once again Barbie slips over the side and almost immediately says,

'No, this will never do, the water is only up to my chest.'
So... on they row and row and row,

and finally Barbie slips over the side and disappears.
Quite a bit of time goes by and poor Chrisy is really getting worried
when suddenly Barbie breaks the surface, gasping for breath.
'Well is it deep enough yet, Sis?'
''Yes, finally. Hand me the shovel.'

Is this upside down?????
Is this upside down?????
A young kid's in a shipwreck and he winds up stranded on a tropical island.
For twenty years he never sees another human being.
Then one day a beautiful girl with long blond hair, her clothes half-ripped off,
washes up on a piece of driftwood.
He explains to her how he existed for twenty years,
digging for clams, and eating fruits and berries.
She says, "Well, what did you do for love?"
He says, "Love? What's that?"
She says, "I'll show you."
She shows him.
Then she shows him again.
Then she shows him one more time.
When they're finally done, she says,
"Well, how do you like love?"
He says, "It's great.
But look what you did to my clam digger."
