My daughter Rebekah is receiving an award on next Tuesday.. a Level B Certificate of Commendation which reflects consistently high standards of conduct, industry and attitude.
I'm SO SO SO Proud!!!
oOOOo
Now for... AUSSIE ETIQUETTE
IN
GENERAL
1.
Never take an open stubby to a job interview.
2. Always
identify people in your paddocks before shooting at
them.
3. It's tacky to take
an Esky to church.
4. If you
have to vacuum the bed, it's time to change the
sheets.
5. Even if you're
certain you're included in the will, it's rude to take
your ute and trailer to the
funeral.
DINING
OUT
1. When
decanting wine from the box, tilt the paper cup and pour slowly so as not to
bruise the wine.
2. If
drinking directly from the bottle, hold it with only one
hand.
ENTERTAINING
IN YOUR HOME
1.
A centrepiece for the table should never be anything prepared by a
taxidermist.
2. Don't allow
the dog to eat at the table, no matter how good his
manners.
PERSONAL
HYGIENE
1.
While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this should be done in private,
using one's OWN ute keys.
2.
Even if you live alone, deodorant isn't a waste of
money.
3. Extensive use of
deodorant can only delay bathing by a few days.
4. Dirt and grease
under the fingernails is a no-no, it alters the taste of finger foods and if
you are a woman it can draw attention away from your jewellery.
DATING
1.
Always offer to bait your date's hook - especially on the first date.
2. Be assertive. Let
her know you're interested: 'I've been wanting to go out with you ever since
I read that stuff about you on the dunny door two years
ago.'
3. Establish with her
parents what time she's expected back. Some will say 11:00 PM, others might
say 'Monday.' If the latter is the answer, it's the man's responsibility to
get her to school on time.
THEATRE/CINEMA
ETIQUETTE
1.
Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and picked up after the movie
ends.
2. Refrain from
yelling abuse at characters on the screen. Tests have proven they can't hear
you. ( I HAVE done this!!!)
WEDDINGS
1.
Livestock is a poor choice for a wedding gift.
2. Kissing the bride
for more than five seconds may cause a drop in your popularity.
3.
For the groom, at least, rent a tux. A tracksuit with a cummer- bund and a
clean football jumper can create a tacky appearance.
4. Though
uncomfortable, say 'yes' to socks and shoes for the
occasion.
DRIVING
ETIQUETTE
1.
Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles, even if your gun's loaded and
the roo's in your rifle sight.
2. When entering a
roundabout, the vehicle with the largest roo bar doesn't always have the
right of way. (Oh... YES IT DOES!!!)
3. Never tow
another car using panty hose and duct tape.
4. When sending your
wife down the road with a petrol can, it's impolite to ask her to bring back
beer
too.
The REALLY freaky thing here... is alot of this Aussies DO!!! Oh... and I must admit, i'm guilty of a few!
