Yeah, so am I. And the last time I checked, the language of Australia was
still English (although damn it, it's becoming more 'merkinised by the
minute....) These Cats and pies are still a foreign language to me, though.
What should this other language be called, I wonder? AFLish? It'd be
pronounced"Afflish", I suppose.... so that the Ruglish and Leaguelish
speakers wouldn't get confused.... and as for those Socclish folk.....
