RE: "Bob's my Uncle"

Gawd!  Them Kiwis are tryin' ta grab the glory again!
They reckon "Pavlova" is theirs!
Well if it is, then we added "mate" on the end (we do that a lot)
Annie, Jean, help us out here!

Stone the flamin' crows Pete mate, I was sure it was a blue who
uttered them words `riginally.  During a cricket match.   We won.
Kiwis had an underarm problem.  Ansett hit the winning run.
  
I was sure gutted.  Dags, dekko - can't tell the difference nowdays,
we both use them so much they've become part of both Oz & NZ *Kulture. 

on ya mate!

Cheers,

Ian in Perth.
