Good morning all hope it isn't too hot, wet or cold where you are, it's not too bad here cold but not too cold. Well here we are with some more Aussie Slang maybe old slang no longer used or current slang we will see.
Harold Holt: as in to do a Harold Holt meaning to bolt do a runna
Hoon: Hooligans
Journo: Journalist
Footy: Aussie rules football or rugby league depending what State you are in.
Freo: Fremantle
These are still used by many people
So they never found old Harold?
ReplyDeleteNope no idea what became of him
DeleteI use them all, regularly. Australians seemed always to shorten names, then added an "o" eg milko for milkman, garbo for garbage man.
ReplyDeleteThat we do and I use these words often myself
DeleteThese are always interesting.

DeleteAll new ones on me!
