Title: If only Silverbullett was down under
Post by: john m on May 09, 2019, 11:17:38 am
Australia's latest A$50 note comes with a big blunder hidden in the small print - a somewhat embarrassing typo.

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) spelled "responsibility" as "responsibilty" on millions of the new yellow notes.

The RBA confirmed the typo on Thursday and said the error would be fixed in future print runs.

But for now, around 46 million of the new notes are in use across the country.

The bills were released late last year and feature Edith Cowan, the first female member of an Australian parliament.

What looks like a lawn in the background of Ms Cowan's portrait is in fact rows of text - a quotation from her first speech to parliament.

There was a restaurant somewhere in Dublin yonks ago that had a board advertising "Roasted Aborigine Soup"....Aubergine never tasted so racist.

He asked us how do you spell merchandising and I told him merchantising.He painted it on the door and the door had to be resprayed twice. Heard the effer got fired later.....boxbottle

A shop on Deans Grange road opposite the cemetary, got a new sign a good few years ago. Used to be called "The Bungalow". The new sign continues to this day as "The Bugnalow".

I can imagine the Erm getting off an A380 in Australia and the first words out of his mouth being " I can't wait to see where the Sound of Music was filmed " 8)

I've driven by that a couple of times.
I thought it was a polack shop or something.

I nearly bough a gaff in gippsland 20 yers ago.... I'm so fukin sorry I didn't now.... Bout 50 acres beautiful meadows, rolling hills, the beautiful gurgling song of the Australian magpie,  the koalas looking down on ya tellin ya to chill out wit their sleepy eyes... The kookaburra makin a racket... The iguanas hissing at yu... The warmth of the sun and the quench of the local beer as yur sweat dropped from your brow into the glass.... Anyway had the cash in me pocket.. The place was for nuttin.... And as I stepped into the long grass of the most beautiful countryside garden that I was about to sign for..... the estate agent says to me in his best crocodile Dundee accent ... "
Ya wana watch yerself mate.. Seen a tiger snake in that grass yesterday " " bite kill ya in 5 minutes mate"
