Lol Tara! I'd love a translation! And do you know, I almost guessed chocolate milk bottle! I thought, no that can't be right. I wasn't really sure when they started making chocolate milk! And you're so right, Oz!
You shoulda guessed it... I heard that chocolate milk was invented so they could sell milk that was past its due date by disguising the "off" taste...oh gag me!
Not sure I won't blush a bit if I do a translation...oh well here goes...Sigh...having to translate the
Queen's English, eh?

Crikey (expression of mock surprise in a humorous way)
Mate (Dude or Fella, Buddy, Friend), I suspect you are quite
ace (right, excellent, very good).
I hear
underneath the Southern Stars (Australia...reference not only to the country's flag but the Star of Federation-seven sided star for the states/territories, and then the four stars in the Southern Cross used for navigation which is a constellation that is seen by the whole continent), the
Four'N'Twenty (famous pie maker)
dog's eyes (fast food "meat pies") are
grouse (terrific, great, good) but I suspect they could be a bit
bodgy (bad or inferior in quality) if you are not into fast foods and a
throw down (small sized bottle of beer like a Butcher)? I've had a
Crow Eater (Southern Australian, this one I refer to is from NSW) tell me they are
cooee (within, near, close) better than a
Dingo's breakfast (stretch, yawn, pee and a look about but NO food) so I'd be
dinkum (genuine, true, real) to
give them a burl (give it a try, a go) maybe once if I was on a
Bludger's (lazy bloke's)
chuck a sickie (pretend day off from work, holiday).
It's a
Dill's (idiot's)
furphy (rumour) to think it's only an accent,
eh? (Canadian speak for "I'm warming up my frozen fingers...again!")

So does it sorta make some sense now?
Hooroo,
Tara - Who's troppo gone to Woop Woop..."Gonna find me some dawg eyes since Oz gave them the true blue tucker seal of approval!"
