2. arvo - afternoon

3. ball and chain - wife

4. bloke - man

5. Pommy - English (citizen)

6. barbie - barbeque

7. brekkie - breakfast

8. Seppo - Americans

9. rugrats / ankle biters - kids

10. bingle - vehicle accident

14. coldie - beer

15. spit the dummy - get very upset

16. off his face - drunk

17. who opened their lunch? - who farted?
