They are Hero's to me, They worked on me for 20 minutes before they took me to hospital, And I have seen them put others first during all the troubles over here time and time again,

Well It was 33*c + here today and in parts of the UK it got up to 35.1*c. on Thursday it is meant to be 37/38*c In London :eek:

For all you Aussies that think the poms are soft. Remember they have to drink warm beer. The humanity ! :beer:

When I was a kid I had an uncle who went over to England for Christmas in the 1970's to say with family. He wasn't sure he could handle Pommy beer anymore so he arranged for an aunt to get a dozen bottles of Fosters to be there waiting for him, with instructions to keep them in the fridge. When he was there he poured himself one and one for an English uncle, who upon taking the glass from him barely had it to his mouth when he quickly put it down in front of the open fire exclaiming "ooooh, it's cold. I'll warm it up first.........." :awful: My uncle had a tough time convincing him that that's how Australian beer is supposed to be drunk.

And according to my 89 year old Pommy father, it was not uncommon in the old days for people to heat the poker in the fire and then stick it in the glass of beer to get it warm quicker! :lol:
 
At least the Indians are more honest about it, here it is marketed as Fosters.

Yeah that's true they did do that with the poker, Stout and Guinness or how ever you spell it is meant to be drunk between 10 and 13*c Not 1 to 2*c like we are use to,

Ya know I can't even drink a can of coke unless it is 2*c or below where it just about gives you brain freeze, and if it gets above 4* then I add ice or get a fresh one out the fridge,
