General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Well, Im an aussie, my husband and both daughters were born in California, I married my american husband over there in 1970. In those days I could not be understood with my Aussie accent and yes I modified it so I could function on a day to day basis. Now living back in OZ since 1981, I quickly got my old Aussie twang back. One daughter and husband became aussie citizens, one daughter retained her U.S. citizenship and could probably become dual if she wanted. She married an Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander Aussie. My grandparents migrated from Wigan, my maternal great grandparents are Scottish on one side and Welsh on another. And one of my grandmothers was Irish. You can imagine what my genealogy research is like.
I feel a bit like the piggie in the middle!
Tolerance, people, tolerance, get out of your little boxes and out of your comfort zones, and try to be more tolerant. "Get a life" maybe??? (Bet you hate THAT one!) lol!
