So you passed the IELTS, but can you speak Aussie?

So, we're all feeling chuffed that we got our required scores in the various English proficiency tests and are ready to tackle communication in Australia, as they supposedly speak English there, as why else would we have to jump through all those test hoops?

Or are we???? :o:o:o

It's bollocks really. I mean a "comedian" makes a video.

Talk the Queen's English and you'll be fine.

Many years ago in Perth, my wife asked me to interpret between her and a "wukka" at Jesters. Neither had a clue what the other was saying - and they were both speaking English.

I admit the "wukka" was speaking English with an accent I have never heard before or since.
