Arrrggghh! Just seen I cancelled my thread subscription without realizing it. How did I let that happen?

Had to go back a month and see the posts. Some or most of you will have a small pile of thanks from me, depending how often you posted. That's the reason

You never know. But you complained last year you missed all the gay parades. Whose fault was that? Tony Abbott's?

Talking about toilets, on hols this week. An island 17 x 7 miles has a pop. of 460,000 and 3 mil tourists per year. A guide on a culural tour of the island said there are more Maltese living in Aust than Malta?

My question is: how well do all the immigrants integrate nowadays...Maltese, Dallies, Dagos, Asians and...Poms?

Based on the graffiti scrawled all over the walls (&) of a Melbourne uni. library bog some decades ago, I'd say: the immigrants all integrate quite nicely, as they always have. It's the miscreants who've forgotten they or their parents were also immigrants who seem to struggle.

Poms we still call whinging Poms

Asians aren't really called slope heads anymore since Aussies discovered their enjoyment of take away Asian food and is great

Dago's or Wogs .... thing of the way past.

Although originally we were called wincing Poms
