I'm surprised Mr. Douglas Adams didn't have anything to say about America's gift to the world....the all American hamburger....otherwise known as McDonalds...washed down with the all American beer...Budweiser...


Actually they don’t. Ask millions of Syrians

Nope, only one in five migrants as it turns out.

More than Oz, sure, but our wildlife probably has a bit to do with that. No point escaping a war zone only to get bitten on the arse by a redback when you go to the bog.

Ha! I am still trying to figure out what Fosters is. Supermarkets over here put it in the beer section, but then again we don't have a piss in a can section.

Most American beer is not "Piss in a can." It's "Making love in a canoe."

If someone offers you a Budweiser, you won't know whether they are a friend or an enemy.

Czech Budweiser is brewed there by a different company using a different recipe.



Since I don’t like beer I couldn’t tell you which tastes less bad.

Joking aside. Thank God for the micro brew revolution that has freed us from our respective domestic swills. You can even get good beer in France now although it is horribly expensive, and who goes to France for the beer when you can drink the wine?

Haha, mos definitely! I love Oz. We spent a month there in 2019. Sailed around the Whitsundays, toured around by van to Caern and surrounding area, stayed with friends in Melbourne, etc. Laughed a LOT!
