They've just showed us the ads that we are about to use to tempt your tourist dollar to Oz, and...I'm sorry.
 
Forgive them ..for they know not what they do.

Do you mean that they make Aussies look kinda funny? ..or that they make them look better then they really are?

I always love the "Come to Jamaca" commercials (some time ago). "We'll dazzle you with Turquoise" as a young boy emerged from the clear waters....and I always envisioned a Casto type spraying the water from a gun boat saying "We'll pepper you with machine gun spray!"
 
ummmm. if you organise a BBQ, Funeral, day at the pub, and there's a non shower (as in some-one who didn't turn up)...you ring them and say "where the bloody **** are you ?"

It's kosher (so to speak).

You just can't scream at the world "where the bloody **** are you ?" as an invitation.
 
Honestly I wonder how much difference those ads make. Seems to me people either have cash to travel, or not, and know the appealing parts of the world.

On second thought most folks are very geographically challenged.

I find the Aussie tourist stuff trite and silly. When and if the kids leave and I hit the lotto, I don't want trite and silly.
 
Drink beer, smash people on the beach, eat shrimp 24/7, chase mates and shielas....and never have to work!!! Me too!!!
