Continuing the funny news, the BBC had the tale of a "Typical Aussie" .... well at least living up to the stereotype.

| Stupid Aussie Drongo? |
There was a beer advert some years ago in which two 'drongo's' are buying beer in the outback.
They load the pickup van with crate after crate of the beer (Fosters or FourXXXX?) and finally one of them comes out with one bottle of sherry with the words "Something for the ladies" ... he then places that on the pickup, which promptly breaks its axles. The moral being that if only they had stuck to the beer ....
Anyway, this week an Australian man was prosecuted and fined for strapping down his beer, rather than his young child. The police said the 30-can pack of beer was strapped down between two adults in the back of the car, with the five-year-old child unrestrained on the floor ... well they may have been shocked by this, but lets be honest, are you?
Apart from the fact that I should imagine traffic is light in the northern territories, so the chance of an accident remote, I can't say that I am as shocked as the police ..... Barry McKenzie lives on!
