AUSTRALIANS ONLY HAVE FIVE COMMANDMENTS
Just wondering what the Australians among us thought of this:
* Thou shalt not dob in thy mates
* Thou shalt not bung on an act.
* Thou shalt not be a tall poppy
* Thou shalt give everyone a fair go
* Thou shalt be fair dinkum
Translating these into standard English yields APPROXIMATELY the following:
* You must not incriminate your friends to the boss, the police or anyone else. Loyalty to your associates is all-important.
* You must not be ostentatious or pretend to be what you are not.
* You must treat others as your equals. If you are seen as being better than others in anything but sport you will be made to suffer for it.
* You must be fair and permissive in your treatment of others.
* You must not be insincere or dishonest.

Sounds about right - though you missed the first one ("* Thou shalt not dob in thy mates") which makes it a bit confusing.

Pixy, you do move fast! I immediately noticed that it was missing, and corrected it as fast as MT allows. But it wasn't fast enough for you!
