another word for "crap" etcI'm a little afraid to ask, but I must... What's a "cack"?
I know there is a good deal of difference between US English and English English, such as pants, rubber, vest etc. Is there much difference between Oz English and English English, or is this a peridiscombobulation?

Why are you so keen to find out, Timbo? Thinking of looking him up? 
I had thought that may have been the meaning of the whole "cack" thing, but figured it couldn't have been, considering the context...
Oh well, Big Brother is as Big Brother does, I guess.
And yes, as Larry says, there does seem to be a fair bit of difference between English & the "cack" we use most of the time over here. Don't think we're quite as bad as the US, but we're working on it!

If you ate yourself would you become twice as big or simply disappear?

He lives in Oz?
Cool! I'll look him up & invite him 'round for some Billy Tea & Damper
No idea if he's that way inclined or not. You could join a gay forum & ask... Or you could just accept that you're wife is probably right. That's usually the case.

Thanks Kev 
There's a high possibility I'll be heading UKward in the not-too-distant future for some well-earned hol's, so I'd best brush up on the language so I don't look a right tw@t (another term rarely used here...). I won't exactly be bringing my Storm with me, but I expect to put a few faces to names while I'm there! Details are sketchy at the mo', but I've got a good friend who's in Ireland for the next year or so & figure the timing's right for me to finally head over for a looky-see. I'm guessing if I do a course or two while I'm there (Ireland's highly regarded for it's post-grad nursing studies), the tax man might sponsor me to some extent...
Anyway, I'll be sure to keep you all posted, so you'll have plenty of time to either come out of your hidey-holes & say hello, or think of an excuse not to.
My plan is to use as many of you as possible for cheap accommodation .
