Mark Waugh's nickname is Junior. Thorpey's feet? And I've never heard anything referred to as "blue-arsed". Those're what I got wrong though.

[Mekon]

Only got 18, couple of stupid mistakes.

And I've never heard anything referred to as "blue-arsed".

Seriously?

"Running around like a blue-arsed fly" is a classic Australianism.

Thorpey's feet?

Are frikken massive. Built-in flippers.

Running around like a chook with its head chopped off, certainly. Never a fly though.
I guess I'm un-Australian.

indeed size 17. massive. I knew that but still only got 14/25 >.<

also did not know what blue-arsed was

[Mekon]

For everyone caught up on the fly thing - they are bluebottle flys, hence blue-arsed. Even though they really look green/black most of the time.

Funny how some expressions appear to be regional.

Nor had I, but as someone here at work pointed out: it's an greeny-yellow note. So does that make a twenty an orange? *shrug*

Personally, I call them: ten, twennie, fiddy and hungie. But then again, I'm an idiot.
