Righty-O Boxman.

The test was given to pre-schoolers—a test that 90% of them passed with no problem…

The door would only be visible if the bus were moving to the right.

Most pre-schoolers apparently knew that!

You're up!

Hey.... It's moving to the RIGHT down here!!   :ausflag;  You guys drive on the wrong side of the road.    ;D

Carpetbag steak is a uniquely Australian

It's fillet steak, served standing up with pockets in the meat which oysters are stuffed. As the dish is broiled, the flavour of the fresh oysters permeates the steak and blends with the juice of the tender meat. A strip of bacon may be wrapped around the serving and surrounded by peeled and browned baby potato halves.

Lauren Bacall`s character sings in the 1944 film `To Have and Have Not` and her voice needed to be dubbed. Her voice is so deep, no female singer was able to match it convincingly. So who's voice is coming from Bacall`s lips?

because of the American Revolution, Britian could no longer send to America, so they started to send them to Austrialia instead?
