A fair dinkum Aussie
Outsider was pleased to see his dear friend and Money Management colleague becoming an Australian citizen recently and was revved up at the thought of attending the ceremony.
Having a lot of things in common, including a passion for Australian politics, Outsider was proud to now call his friend a fellow Australian.
Rocking up with gifts in the form of a brand-spanking new Akubra hat and thongs, Outsider was first in line to congratulate his fair dinkum Aussie mate.
“How’s it going old mate? Do ya feel any more Aussie than before?” Outsider asked.
“Not really?” replied Outsider’s freshly-crowned Aussie friend.
Throwing the gifts into his colleagues’ hands, Outsider asked the same question again.
“How about now?” he said.
“I think so?” the mate replied as he slapped on his hat.
Too bad old mate missed the deadline on enrolling to vote.
