A cold and wet Wednesday here and of course it is that day of the week I share some Aussie slang.
Cark it.......To die or cease working
Clacker......Anus or ass
Clayton's.....Fake or substitute
Coathanger.....Sydney Harbour Bridge
Corroboree.....Aboriginal dance festival
All are new to me! These are all fun to read, though. :)

DeleteMaybe not also Clayton's was one of the first non alcoholic drinks here down under
