An innocent comment but I’ve stewed over it all week long... What makes a typical Aussie? We like to think we’re laidback larrikins, but we’re as divided as America unfortunately. We’re in a very embarrassing place at the moment. We want to acknowledge the previous custodians of our land by including reference to them in our Constitution but the division that has become apparent is scary. Yeah, we’re laidback and laconic, as long as you agree with us. Sigh...
Thank you for your entry into the JRB comment count contest, Beth. Results in the next issue!
And thanks your kind words. Would love to hear your thoughts on what makes a real Aussie.

I had to Google larrikins, Beth. Thanks for the new word!
Good luck working all this out!
