The Aussie’s “In the beginning”
In the beginning Ol Mate created day and night. He created day for footy matches, going to the beach and BBQs.
He created night for going prawning, sleeping and BBQs, and Ol Mate saw that it was good.
On the Second Day, Ol Mate created water – for surfing, – swimming and BBQs on the beach and Ol Mate saw that it was good.
On the Sixth Day Ol Mate saw that the Bloke was lonely and needed someone to go to the footy, surf, drink beer, eat and stand around the barbie with. So Ol Mate created mates, and Ol Mate saw that they were good blokes, and Ol Mate saw that it was good.
On the Seventh Day Ol Mate looked around at the twinkling barbie fires, heard the hiss of opening beer cans and the raucous laughter of all the blokes. He smelled the aroma of grilled chops and sizzling snags and Ol Mate Saw that it was good …..
Well. .
Almost good. He saw that the blokes were too tired to clean up and needed a rest. So Ol Mate created Sheilas- to clean the house,to bear children, to wash, to cook and to clean the Barbie, and then Ol Mate saw that it was not just good.
It was better than that,
it was Bloody Awesome!
IT WAS AUSTRALIA!

Now that’s what you call the best tourist advert for Australia ever! Beats the English one of: “Come visit England, it’s a bit wet, a bit grey and smells funny.”
or the “Where the bloody hell are ya?” campaign we had…
The Bible according to John?
The Aussie BBQ bible…
Let us all bow our heads and THANK Ol Mate for giving us these things so we could go forth and BBQ…Cheers!!!

Sooz
And BBQ we shall..
Can’t “Like” this because of the mysoginistic ideas toward women (Sheilas), but I realize it was a joke, so I’m just going to sigh & move on. (sigh)
There are a set of Aussie BBQ rules written by a woman… Very sexist towards the ideals of how women should act when her husband is “hosting” the BBQ… funny as hell… I’ll get it up on here when I get the chance
Us Sheilas are good for more than that. We have the secret sauce! Not that kind! The BBQ sauce.
Gotta love the marinade too.
Cheeky bugger 😀
😀
Betchya Dave thinks it an exact account….
He would love a girl to clean up after him etc etc .. unfortunately instead he has me and usually its the other way around !!! 😉 ( and I wonder why he goes bush for 3 weeks at a time !! )
Aye, to catch up on sleep… that’s why I still work away
Well, not so sure I should have “LIKED” this one seeing as the Ol Mate was a female to begin with and just needed some blokes to watch for entertainment! She knew they couldn’t take care of the business at the end of the day either! LOL Yes … the secret sauce! That’s it, we also have the secret sauce!
Aye, no arguments Ol Mate has to be a female from this end… I just tell the yarn as it’s told…
That was bloody good. Hey whats a snag?
An Aussie sausage
Cute! 😉
’tis isn’t it?
Oi, Mate! Loved it! That’s my kind of gospel. 😉
