Sorry triple x but "name an aviation topic that has lots of giggles and laughing". Terms and conditions in australian aviation would be one, especially if you're off to SIA.

Geeezaasss --- Relax everyone..... this is almost the same as that woman who used the word "Fair Dinkum" in an american flight and got into trouble.
Are we gonna do the same just because they weren't speaking in English ?
If they were clogging up the airways just tell them and I'm sure they'd understand and shut up. I didn't think an occasional yarn in your own speak would do any harm. I've even accidentally heard QF pilots coming from overseas asked who won the cricket over the airways.

Lighten up
So you couldn't understand what they were saying and you couldn't get a word in edgewise. Woopdy doo
Haven't you ever tried to cancel sar through flightwatch on HF after dark. All you'll hear are our northern neighbours telling each other where the fish are, in fact, instead of HF they should call it PFruNe (HN). No body told them they have to speak english! Although I believe there is now a recorded message played on HF telling them to please crank down the amps on their sets.
Or try to get a taxi call to ML Centre in the southern half of WA at 8am.
Join the queue!
Be tolerant, people probably are with you daily.
