Originally slik, yeah I think the majority of the convicts sent out here were Irish. That's got a lot to do with the way our accent has formed. If you listen to someone with a broad Irish accent and then someone with a broad Aussie accent (think Croc Dundee...) it's not hard to pick out the similarities. I think it's also had a lot to do with the formation of the Aussie sense of humour too. Both cultures have a bit of a laid-back approach to humour... kind of like our Canadian friends. That's why our humour translates better to them... and vice-versa. :eyesmoke:

These days Aus is a melting pot. There are people here from every part of the world. We might have the Constantinoples, a greek family, living next door. On the other side live the Wongs from Singapore. Across the road we might have the Palau family from Tonga, and next to them are the Belinski's from the Ukraine. Grandmere is French... Opa, from your Mum's side came out here from Germany after the war... Uncle Rau, who married Dad's sister is a fullblood Aboriginal from Arnham Land... At school your favourite teachers were Miss Ramu from Argentina and Mr Sherrard, the wickardly funny Irish science head... your best friends are Mandy, a red-headed Scottish girl and CK, a shy, gay polynesian Maori boy. You marry a Ghanian refugee, Ombuku, and have three beautiful children, all with different skin colours. Your sister could never have children, so she and her husband, Steve adopt an orphaned brother and sister who arrived from Afghanistan via Pakistan and India....

Of course, this is a hypothetical *this family is not in any way based on any actual persons, alive or deceased*... but I'm not exaggerating too much. This is a fair example of the lives of a lot of Aussies. We learn about other cultures fairly early in our lives, and most Aussies are fairly tolerant of people of other cultural backgrounds. We all have different traditions and ideas, and on the whole we recognise that fact...
