Not to burst the bubble as I love that joke too, but the first version of it that I ever saw was with the Canadians in place of the Kiwis, and the good ol' Yanks in place of the Aussies ! Don't think I have a copy of that version though, will post it if I happen to find it ! ]]> Fri, 31 Mar 2006 18:12:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1987&PID=36624&title=kiwis-vs-aussies-australian-navy#36624 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1987&PID=36610&title=kiwis-vs-aussies-australian-navy#36610 Author: toniellis
