    I have lost count of the amount of people who have mistaken me as an australian, I have heard every aussie joke under the sun! (I'm south african btw) It gets rather annoying after a while, even tho Australians seem like a nice bunch!

    I suppose I always think of Crocodile Dundee when I imagine aussies in the outback!

    Edit: Oh yeah, before I came to england, I always pictured the English, as being really pale, and quite stuck up! I am glad to say I was quite wrong about that!

    when I was in canada there were a fair amount of people that thought I was australian.
