Judge Dread is in court.

An open house is not now appropriate and I feel Bri should take control.

Any objections?

I see Ton just beat me to that.

Bruce is driving over Sydney Harbour Bridge one day in his ute when he sees his girlfriend Sheila just about to throw herself off the bridge into the water far below.

Bruce slams on the brakes & shouts "G'day Sheila! What the hell do you think you're doing?"

Sheila turns around with a tear in her eye and says "G'day Bruce - You got me pregnant & so now I'm gonna kill myself."

Bruce gets a lump in his throat when he hears this and says "Sheila, not only are you a great root, but you're a real sport."

edit to say: where would we all be without Aussies?

For the records. What was the name of teusje's challenge at Post # 23966?
Skytrain never actually gave the name in his answer, the references teusje linked also did not give the aircraft a name.

Standby Mel - I'll check.

A Chinese man decides to move to Australia after 50 years of living in Shanghai.

He buys a small piece of land near Mt Isa.

A few days after he moves in a friendly Aussie neighbour decides to go along and welcome the new guy to the region.

He goes next door but on his way up the drive-way he sees the Chinese man running around his front yard chasing about 10 hens.
Not wanting to interrupt these 'Chinese customs', he decides to put the welcome on hold for a day.

The next day, he decides to try again, but just as he is about to knock on the front door, he looks through the window and sees the Chinese man urinate into a glass and then drink it.

Not wanting to interrupt another 'Chinese custom', he decides to put the welcome on hold for yet another day.

A day later he decides to give it one last go, but on his way next door, he sees the Chinese man leading a bull down the drive-way, pause, and then put his head next to the bull's bum.

The Aussie bloke can't handle this, so he goes up to the Chinese man and says “Jeez Mate, what the hell is it with your Chinese customs?
I come over to welcome you to the neighbourhood, and see you running around the yard after hens.

The next day you are pissing in a glass, and drinking it, and then today you have your head so close to that bull's bum, it could just about **** on you.”

The Chinese man is very taken back and says “Sorry sir, you no understand, these no Chinese customs I doing, these Australian Customs.”
'What do you mean mate,” says the Aussie, “those aren't Australian customs.”

”Yes they are, man at travel agent tell me,” replied the Chinese man, “he say to become true Australian, I learn chase chicks, drink piss, and listen to bull-****”

Yes it is the Heinkel He.211 project. Many DM were invested, but no government support, so further development was halted. You have control.
